Solve the question: What is the full name of the player who was 21 years old when he moved from the football club whose home stadium is Estádio Orlando Scarpelli ? Provide just your answer in a JSON object {"answer": "YOUR ANSWER"}. Use only the information given.

In the sport of association football , each of the 11 players on a team is assigned to a particular position on the field of play . A team is made up of one goalkeeper and ten outfield players who fill various defensive , midfield , and attacking positions depending on the formation deployed . These positions describe both the player 's main role and their area of operation on the pitch . In the early development of the game , formations were much more offensively aggressive , with the 1-2-7 being prominent in the late 1800s . In the latter part of the 19th century , the 2-3-5 formation became widely used and the position names became more refined to reflect this . In defence , there were full-backs , known as the left-back and right-back ; in midfield , left-half , centre-half and right-half ; and for the forward line there were outside-left ( or left wing ) , inside-left , centre-forward , inside-right and outside-right ( or right wing ) . As the game has evolved , tactics and team formations have changed and so many of the names of the positions have changed to reflect their duties in the modern game ( though some old familiar ones remain ) . The term half-back fell out of use by the early 1970s and midfield was used in naming the positions that play around the middle third as in centre midfield and wide midfield . The fluid nature of the modern game means that positions in football are not as rigidly defined as in sports such as rugby or American football . Even so , most players will play in a limited range of positions throughout their career , as each position requires a particular set of skills and physical attributes . Footballers who are able to play comfortably in a number of positions are referred to as utility players . However , in Total Football tactics , the players are only loosely defined into a position .
In the sport of association football , a defender is an outfield player whose primary roles is to stop attacks during the game and prevent the opposing team from scoring goals . Centre backs are usually are in pairs , with 2 full-backs to their left and right , but can come in threes with no full backs There are four types of defenders : centre-back , sweeper , full-back , and wing-back . The centre-back and full-back positions are essential in most modern formations . The sweeper and wing-back roles are more specialized for certain formations .
Ayrton Luís Ganino ( born 19 April 1985 ) , commonly known as Ayrton , is a Brazilian footballer who plays for CRB . He has previously played for 14 different clubs , most recently Palmeiras , Vitória and Flamengo .
Coritiba Foot Ball Club , commonly known as Coritiba , and colloquially as Coxa Branca or simply Coxa , is a Brazilian football club from Curitiba in the state of Paraná . Founded in 1909 , it is the oldest football club in the state . Coritiba have won the Paraná State Championship 37 times - more than both of its main rivals combined ( Athletico Paranaense have 22 titles and Paraná Clube have 7 ) . Coritiba has won the Brazilian Championship once in 1985 . Coritiba is the first club from southern Brazil to have won a national title , the 1973 Torneio do Povo , and is also the first southern club to have competed in both main continental competitions - the Copa Libertadores and the Copa Sudamericana . Coritiba was both the first club from Paraná to have won the Série A ( the main title in Brazil ) , and to reach the semi-finals in the second main competition in the country - the Copa do Brasil - in 1991 , 2001 , 2009 , and to reach the finals in 2011 and 2012 . Coritiba is the only club who have six consecutive Paranaense titles , between 1971 and 1976 . Coritiba is also the club with the most appearances in this championship . The club are currently in first place on the FPF ranking , 14th place on the CBF ranking , 83rd place on the Conmebol ranking and 125th on the international IFFHS ranking . The club has more than 30,000 members [ citation needed ] . As of 2013 , Coritiba has partnerships ( including loans and exchanges of youth players ) with Porto and Benfica of Portugal , Chivas Guadalajara of Mexico , Daegu of South Korea and VVV-Venlo of the Netherlands . Coritiba is the first football club in the south of Brazil to begin to embrace American football .
The goalkeeper , often shortened to keeper or goalie , is one of the major positions of association football . It is the most specialised position in the sport . The goalkeeper 's primary role is to prevent the opposing team from scoring ( moving the ball over the defended goal-line within the frame of the goal ) . This is accomplished by the goalkeeper moving into the path of the ball and either catching it or directing it away from the vicinity of the goal line . Within the penalty area goalkeepers are able to use their hands , making them ( outside throw-ins ) the only players on the field permitted to handle the ball . The special status of goalkeepers is indicated by them wearing different coloured kits from their teammates . The back-pass rule prevents goalkeepers handling direct passes back to them from teammates . Goalkeepers usually perform goal kicks , and also give commands to their defence during corner kicks , direct and indirect free kicks , and marking . Goalkeepers play an important role in directing on field strategy as they have an unrestricted view of the entire pitch , giving them a unique perspective on play development . The goalkeeper is the only required position of a team . If they are injured or sent off , a substitute goalkeeper has to take their place , otherwise an outfield player must take the ejected keeper 's place in goal . In order to replace a goalkeeper who is sent off , a team usually substitutes an outfield player for the backup keeper ( thus effectively the red card and substitution takes out two of the starting eleven players ) .

A midfielder is an association football position . Midfielders are generally positioned on the field between their team 's defenders and forwards . Some midfielders play a disciplined defensive role , breaking up attacks , and are otherwise known as defensive midfielders . Others blur the boundaries , being more mobile and efficient in passing : they are commonly referred to as deep-lying midfielders , play-makers , box-to-box , or holding midfielders . The number of midfielders on a team and their assigned roles depends on the team 's formation ; the collective group of these players on the field is sometimes referred to as the midfield . Most managers assign at least one midfielder to disrupt the opposing team 's attacks , while others may be tasked with creating goals , or have equal responsibilities between attack and defence .

Their advanced position and limited defensive responsibilities mean forwards normally score more goals on behalf of their team than other players . Modern team formations generally include one to three forwards ; for example , the common 4-2-3-1 formation includes one forward . Unconventional formations may include more than three forwards , or none .
