The 24-year-old is set to make his Selecao return this weekend but insists he must work hard to keep Barcelona's Dani Alves out of Dunga's plans.
Danilo is confident Brazil will bounce back from a disappointing Copa America campaign and return to winning ways.
The Selecao arrived at June’s tournament in Chile on a run of 10 consecutive Chevrolet Brasil Global Tour victories and were favorites for the title, but ultimately exited in the quarterfinals via a penalty shootout defeat to Paraguay.
On Saturday the side faces Costa Rica at Red Bull Arena and right back Danilo is confident coach Dunga has the team heading in the right direction, insisting the quality of the players will shine through.
