Santos striker Ricardo Oliveira netted his tenth goal in seventeen league games this season yesterday as his side defeated Coritiba.
And, with the 35-year-old topping the goalscoring charts, boss Dorival Junior took the opportunity to urge Brazil boss Dunga to add the veteran to his squad for their upcoming friendlies.
He told Lancenet: “Look at his current level. Generally players who displayed this level are fighting for a place with the Seleçāo, regardless of their age. We will start a competition with the Seleção with a fairly young team. He has the quality to play and could be a great option for Dunga. “
