Ancelotti names Raphinha as Brazil captain ahead of Vinicius Jr

Gabriel reveals the truth: Raphinha did not ask for a rest, he was misunderstood

At a time when Raphinha has come under sharp criticism in certain circles within the Brazil national team, his team-mate Gabriel Magalhães came out to defend him strongly and set the record straight, insisting that the Barcelona star did not come to the national team to rest, but rather came to learn and to fight, and that what he said was completely misunderstood.

The secret behind Raphinha's bandage: did he defy Barcelona's decision for the sake of the Brazil armband?

The bandage worn by Barcelona star Raphinha in recent matches was not merely a passing precautionary measure, but rather concealed the details of a medical decision he had taken, driven by his desire to answer the call of the Brazil national team, even though the Catalan club had preferred to postpone it until the current international break, in order to avoid exposing their player to any additional strain during the season.
