Dani Alves has mimicked Tottenham forward Richarlison’s ‘pigeon’ celebration during Brazil training ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, as he posted on Instagram.

The 39-year-old, who was a surprise selection in Tite’s 26-man squad, was pictured in Brazil training copying Richarlison’s celebration as the Spurs man was stood in front of him.

The legendary right-back posted the following IG post to the player, which read, ’I’ve seen this move before, huh!!!’.

RICHARLISON AT THE WORLD CUP

Richarlison will be hoping that celebration comes to good use because he is going to be a key player for Tite out in Qatar.

From his last six Brazil matches, the 25-year-old has an impressive seven goals to his name and he could be a starter when the South American giants kick-off their campaign against Serbia on November 24.

They go in as one of the favourites to hit the ultimate jackpot, and why not? Especially when you have the plethora of attacking options on their table.

The South American sides seem to be getting most of the attention, in regards to going all the way, with Argentina unbeaten in their last 36 matches and also the current Copa America holders.

They beat Brazil on their way to that triumph and there is every chance they meet on the world’s biggest stage.

If Brazil and Argentina top their respective groups, then a clash in the semi-final World Cup will be penned in, which would be something pretty special.
