Brazil international Fabinho could be on the cusp of joining Manchester United this summer, a report from Corrieredello Sport suggests.

The Europa League leaders are prepared to spend an overall package of around £35m in order to lure the midfielder from the Principality outfit. Fabinho has been linked with a move to Old Trafford over the past 12 months, and Mourinho had initially sought him as a potential replacement for Antonio Valencia for the right-back spot.

Manchester City are reportedly close to completing the deal for Brazil international DaniAlves.

The former Barcelona defender is close to the move to the Etihad this summer after impressing at Juventus upon his Nou Camp exit.

Ricardo Kaka and Ronaldinho Gaucho are 2 of the greatest Brazilian footballers in modern times.

Each one of them have lifted numerous titles with different clubs and with the Brazilian national football team as well.

Brazil have been enjoying an incredible run under manager Tite, who replaced Dunga as the national team coach just under a year ago.

Since then, the national team has enjoyed immense success by winning all their eight matches. Tite has certainly transformed Brazil’s fortunes going into the 2017 Confederations Cup. More importantly, Brazil have once again been transformed into a favourite for the World Cup title. The national team are top of their World Cup qualification group after having won all the matches. Tite has been able to achieve this success by reducing the dependence on Neymar.

Brazil continued their incredible form under Tite after securing a 3-0 win over Paraguay.

This win came just a few days after the impressive 4-1 win over Uruguay. These results have enabled Brazil to become the first team to qualify for the World Cup 2018. Since the former Corinthians manager came on as the replacement for Dunga after a disappointing Copa America, Brazil have not suffered a defeat in any competition. The 4-1 win over Uruguay is clearly the highlight of Tite’s time at the national team so far. Yet, he will be expected to achieve bigger things in the coming years.

Brazil national team boss Tite claims that he wished Lionel Messi was playing for the Selecao.

Brazil are regarded as one of the top international teams, but they have been unable to make much of an impact in the last decade.

Brazilian side Chapecoense have won their first international game since they shook the football world in November when a plane carrying 19 players and coaching crew crashed.

At least 71 people died during that crashed and it seemed like an incident that could mar the club for a long time.

Brazilian striker Gabriel Jesus suffered a major injury just a few games into his Manchester City career.

It is a major disappointment for all parties concerned considering that Jesus has had an excellent start to his life at City after managing to score 3 goals in his first two appearances. The two goals in the game against Swansea helped the team secure a much-needed 2-1 win. Signed for an extravagant € 32 million, manager Pep Guardiola would have been extremely disappointedto see such a start but to an end by a long-term injury.

Neymar captained the Brazilian national squad during the 2016 edition of the Summer Olympics and the young superstar helped Brazil in winning their first Olympic Gold medal as they had never done it before.

When the international tournament was over, Neymar was asked about his experience in relation to how it was being the captain of Brazil and the Barcelona player replied by saying:

Former Brazil coach Carlos Alberto Parreira, who won the World Cup with theSeelcao, says that the human touch provided by Tite has been a major factor in the revival of form for the five-time world champions.

After having endured major disappointments in the World Cup 2014 and Copa America 2016, Brazil were seriously in need of a new direction.
