“…Research into this area has grown significantly in the last three decades (Elliott & Gusterud, 2018;Lago-Peñas et al, 2019), especially those related to transnational migration on football and its most prominent European professional men leagues (Binder & Findlay, 2012;Elliott, 2013Elliott, , 2016Frick, 2009;. On the contrary, there is lack of studies and information specially on two dimensions: (a) intranational migration studies, which deserves attention from academic researchers because of its impact on social changes and cultural issues faced by migrants within the same country (Erel, 2010;McKinlay & McVittie, 2007;Roderick, 2013) and (b) research on migration related to other sports beyond football (Elliott & Maguire, 2008;Gavira et al, 2013), such as futsal (Moore et al, 2014;Tedesco, 2014) and its specific social scenarios, for example, in Brazil (Caregnato et al, 2015). Furthermore, little is still known about Brazilian sport labor context (Damo, 2014;de Souza & Martins, 2018;Marques & Marchi J unior, 2019) and its influence on intranational and transnational sport migration scenarios (Rubio, 2017).…”
