Manchester United star Antony has told Liverpool midfielder Fabinho on Instagram ‘you are the best’, as players convene for the international break.
Both Antony and Fabinho will be repping the colours of Brazil during this coming week, with the 2022 World Cup favourites facing off against Ghana and Tunisia in friendly matches during these next six days.
Fabinho was all jokes as he joined up with his Brazil teammates, as he was seen laughing with Matheus Cunha and Antony.
BRAZIL ONE OF THE FAVOURITES FOR THE 2022 WORLD CUP
Only a few months remain before the biggest showpiece in sport kicks off, with Brazil heading to Qatar as one of the favourites to win a historic sixth World Cup.
They haven’t tasted success since the days of Ronaldo and Ronaldinho when they triumphed in 2002, but the crop of players at Tite’s disposal now has got fans of their country pretty excited.
Fabinho is expected to be centre stage of Brazil’s midfield, whilst Antony faces a fight for minutes in a jam-packed and talent-crazy forward line.
From Barcelona’s new superstar Raphinha, the ever-improving Vinicius Jr to the soon-to-be legend Neymar Jr, this is a forward line not to be messed with.
But what makes Brazil even more dangerous is the hard-hitting defensive qualities they have in the middle of the park, from Fabinho to Champions League winner, Casemiro.
Then they are blessed with the fact that one of Ederson or Alisson Becker will be warming the bench when Tite’s side kick-off their World Cup campaign against Serbia on 24th November.
It’s fair to say that if either duo represented England, France, Spain or Germany, or any other heavyweight nation at the World Cup, then they would be starting.
