Diego Tardelli has said that he is ready and raring to go ahead of the Copa America this summer in Chile.

The 30 year striker has been included in Dunga’s Brazil squad despite fears over his place when he moved to Chinese team Shandong Luneng in January.

Before the move he had been a key player for the Seleção and Dunga has kept faith in him aswell as Everton Ribeiro who has also moved abroad to Al-Alhi.

“It will be one of the toughest competitions in history, much like the last World Cup where the level was very high,” Tardelli told reporters. “I am preparing well. I work individually after each session because I want to maintain my level for the last few friendlies with the Seleção. I’ve played well, especially against Argentina and Colombia. I think with our qualities, we can be champion.”
