Ex-Man City striker Jo: I want to return to Europe to play in the Champions League

Atletico Mineiro striker Jo insists he would love to return to play in Europe if the opportunity presented itself.

The 26-year old Brazilian has previously spent time in Russia with CSKA Moscow, in England with Manchester City and Everton and in Turkey with Galatasaray and admits a move of that nature would make him ponder departing his homeland for a second time.

"I indeed still want to return to Europe, play in the Champions League and return to one of those leagues," Jo told Superesportes.

"But I am still under contract and I want to see it out.

"I am wonderfully happy here, but I am still young, with this dream of going back there. We never know."
