A number of Leeds United fans have expressed their joy after key man Raphinha made his debut for the Brazilian national team.
The 24-year-old had been forced to turn down his first call-up earlier this season due to restrictions imposed by current international travel guidelines.
This week, however, he finally made his debut for the Selecao and impressed off the bench as Brazil came from behind to win 3-1 against Venezuela.
Indeed, the winger played a role in all three goals, claiming two assists. The official Leeds United Twitter account shared this information, and proud supporters were soon showering Raphinha with their praise.
Here’s what these Leeds fans said…
“The man is different class.”
The Brazilian’s stock seems to keep on rising and with his performances now taking place on the international stage, it really does seem as if Leeds have a great talent on their hands.
Will Raphinha still be at Leeds next season?
Yes
No
Though this will come as no surprise to the club’s supporters. This season he already has claimed three goals in the league, while last year he managed six with a further nine assists.
If he continues to impress, one of Europe’s elite may soon come in for him.
