REAL MADRID
Vinicius given Brazil call-up
Brazil coach Tite has named the Real Madrid forward in his squad for the September friendlies against Colombia and Peru.
With his call-up, Vinicius is now poised to make his full debut for the full Brazil side. The Madrid player was the Brazilian FA's (and Nike's) preferred choice to replace the injured Neymar for the Copa America this summer, however Tite frustrated their plans, preferring to bring in Chelsea's Willian Borges.
Brazil face Colombia on Wednesday September 7th before a repeat of the Copa America 2019 final where they face Peru on September 11.
