Raphinha expected to receive another Brazil call-up

Leeds United winger Raphinha is set to receive another call-up to the Brazil national side this month for the October games.

The Whites and other Brazil clubs refused their South American players the right to travel this month due to COVID-19 quarantine rules.

Ge Globo have shared the latest update, with the call-up set to arrive at Elland Road on Friday the 17th of September.

The South American outlet have shared that Brazil coach Tite expects to be backed by FIFA this time around.

Brazil made the headlines this week, though as health officials stormed on the field of their clash with Argentina.

Premier League players were demanded to return to the United Kingdom, which made the decision to keep Raphinha in West Yorkshire a safe one.

Here we go.

Raphinha is eventually going to make his debut for Brazil, and it looks as though it may come next month with Tite stubborn over those who he is summoning.

The Times shared another update on the situation recently, with a new five-day quarantine rule being discussed.

That means that the current 10-day quarantine would be cut in half for Premier League players returning to the UK.

Based on that, Raphinha would miss the trip to Southampton midway through October, although that blow could have been lessened this week.

Daniel James has since arrived, and he would be thrown straight into the place of the Brazilian, although we would love to have them both available each week.

Trouble is bubbling here, and we can expect more developments in the near future between now and the 17th.
