Roraimense - Finale ChampionnatVue d'ensemble

Jesse Lingard is poised to make his long-awaited debut for Corinthians in Wednesday's high-profile clash against Fluminense at the Maracana. The 33-year-old former Manchester United winger has spent the last month building his fitness in Brazil following a free transfer to Corinthians. Lingard, who previously took in a stint with South Korean side FC Seoul, has reportedly impressed the Corinthians staff with his professional application.

Neymar has detailed the immense emotional burden while toiling for full fitness at Santos. The former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain superstar says the pressure to perform in his homeland is "crushing" as he eyes a World Cup spot with Brazil. Despite the weight of expectation, the veteran forward took time to laud former team-mate Kylian Mbappe’s elite finishing.

AC Milan have returned to the negotiating table with a fresh proposal for Corinthians midfielder Andre. After seeing previous efforts rebuffed, the Italian giants have now signaled their willingness to pay up to €22 million (£18.5m/$23.3m) to bring the teenager to San Siro, as the club looks to get its business done early.

Neymar has stepped up his return to full fitness by starring in a Santos training match, bagging a goal and an assist to remind onlookers of his enduring quality. The legendary forward was a high-profile omission from Carlo Ancelotti’s latest Brazil squad, but this domestic display suggests he is determined to force his way back into the international reckoning.
