Vinícius, Rodrygo, Endrick set to spearhead Brazil's frontline against England on Saturday

Image
Both Vinícius Jr. and Rodrygo have been in exceptional form for Real Madrid this season. Vinícius Jr. is currently one of the most exciting young wingers in the world, known for his pace, dribbling skills, and goalscoring ability. Rodrygo has also been impressing with his versatility and knack for scoring crucial goals. While they are young, both players have experience playing for Brazil at the senior level. Vinícius Jr. already has 19 caps and 2 goals, while Rodrygo has made 5 appearances and scored 1 goal. Tite has shown a preference for youthful, attacking teams, and both Vinícius Jr. (23) and Rodrygo (22) fit that profile.

Image
Man United have agreed £94.2m terms in fee and wages to sign De Ligt from Bayern Munich in the summer transfer window, as per reports. The Dutch international had already agreed on a contract that will make him earn £200,000 a week, £52m in the next five years. However, the Red Devils were stalling on reaching an agreement over the fee and were not prepared to meet the asking price of 50 million euros, £42.2m. Now, Man Utd have agreed the exact fee with Bayern Munich to finally sign Matthijs de Ligt. The Old Trafford outfit had a habit of paying over the odds to secure signings and supporters expected that to change under the ownership of Jim Ratcliffe.
