Murillo’s future seems bright at Nottingham Forest, and he could possibly be called up to the Brazil national squad.
This information comes from UOL in Brazil.
So, what have people said about Forest defender Murillo? Let’s look more closely.
Murillo could now be called up to the Brazil squad.
Murillo’s status appears to be ready to improve even further, with Brazil considering bringing him up.
According to UOL, Brazil’s head coach Dorival Junior viewed five uncapped players live in Europe.
Murillo, a Forest defender, was one of them, and he may soon have the opportunity to shine with the national squad.
Junior’s first Brazil squad will be revealed on Friday, ahead of games against England and Spain next month.
Murillo has been a constant presence in the Forest lineup since his debut against Brentford in October.
Forest signed the defender from Corinthians in the summer, with Manchester City interested in signing Murillo before he relocated to the East Midlands.
Forest has hit the jackpot with Murillo.
At £10.4 million, Forest must be commended for taking a gamble on Murillo.
The Reds signed him despite a lot of interest from other clubs and offered him a chance to succeed in the team.
Last week, it was alleged that Forest see Murillo as someone who may fetch a high transfer fee if they sell him in the future.
For the time being, the 21-year-old will concentrate only on retaining Forest’s Premier League position.
If he is given the opportunity to play for Brazil in the coming weeks, it will be a significant step forward for the young player.
Murillo has played 50 senior games in his career, and he has already proven to be fairly impressive.
The centre-back appears to have a promising future, and it would be fantastic if the Forest man received a call-up to Brazil this week.
