The on-loan Benfica man was a surprise inclusion in this month's squad and must now hope he gets the chance to show exactly what he can do
Few surprises were expected when Brazil coach Tite named his squad for this month’s Brasil Global Tour double-header against Russia and Germany — but Anderson Talisca’s inclusion was certainly that.
To those who have followed his progress in Turkey with Besiktas this season, however, his call-up is anything but.
At age 24, Talisca is five years into a career that kicked off in 2013, when he debuted in senior football with Bahia.
