The unity in the Brazil camp has been highlighted by Hulk when answering questions for the Gillette Brasil Global Tour after he was asked questions about his teammate- and rival for a starting berth at this summer’s World Cup- Willian. Hulk’s positivity about the Chelsea man displayed a real family spirit within the squad.
“Willian is a great player. I’ve always followed his career since he left Brazil early- I watched him in the Champions League for Shakhtar and have played against him too. He’s got incredible quality and is deservedly playing for Brazil as he is a very good player.”
“He’s playing well for Chelsea and deserves the best because as well as being a good player, he’s a great guy off the pitch too, so i wish him the best of luck.”
The pair are vying for a place in Brazil’s starting XI alongside Oscar and Neymar, with hulk the apparent frontrunner as it stands.
