Brazil fans have grown increasingly frustrated with the national team’s attacking output following a 2-1 friendly defeat to France, even resorting to chanting Neymar's name in the absence of the Santos star. However, Joao Pedro believes the talent currently at Carlo Ancelotti's disposal, including Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior and Barcelona’s Raphinha, matches the individual quality of the iconic trios that defined previous golden eras.

In an interview, the Bayern boss quickly dismisses the speculation surrounding an outstanding winger.

Barcelona and Brazil legend Romario has made his pick between Vinicius Junior and Lamine Yamal, with two superstar wingers continuing to wow audiences around the world. Both Vinicius and Yamal have become contenders for Ballon d’Or recognition, while remaining talismanic figures on opposing sides of the fierce Clasico divide that separates Real Madrid and Barca.

Real Madrid fans can breathe a sigh of relief after reports emerged that Vinicius Junior has avoided a serious injury while on international duty with Brazil. Despite missing training sessions ahead of the Selecao’s clash with Croatia, the winger is not expected to face a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Eduardo Camavinga has come to the defence of his Real Madrid team-mate, Vinicius Junior, offering a revealing insight into the Brazilian's behaviour on the pitch. The French midfielder took advantage of the recent international window to explain why the winger often displays such effusiveness towards opponents, referees and fans.
