Tite Does Not Want To Hurryly Call This Player In The Senior Brazilian National Team

So far, Vinicius Junior has not really seen his role in the Brazilian national team. However, the Selecao coach, Tite is patiently waiting for the best performance of the Real Madrid player.

The Brazilian public certainly awaits Vinicius's appearance considering he has not even been called into the senior Brazilian national team. Tite himself admitted that the player actually entered the radar long before the 19-year-old player joined Real Madrid in 2018.

Precisely, when the player was still strengthening the Brazilian national team at a young age, namely the Brazilian U-17 where he was able to score 17 goals in 19 appearances, and the Brazilian U-15 with a notch six goals from six matches.

Not only good at scoring goals, Vinicius is also good at creating chances. At his club Real Madrid, Vinicius became the second most player in creating assists last season, where he could release 12 assists from 31 appearances. Definitely not a bad record for young players who are just starting an adventure in Europe.

But the performance of Vincius has not succeeded in capturing Tite's heart. So far, the 58-year-old man still entrusts the trio of Gabriel Jesus, Neymar and Roberto Firmino. Related to that, Tite wants all parties to understand that he does not want to rush to play Vinicius, besides his age is still very young, Tite also believes there are still many things that need to be developed from the player.

"When we see him playing at Real Madrid with the level of performance shown, we can understand that he is already a player with good maturity," Tite said as reported by the US.

"But remember, he is only 19 years old, and we must give him time to maintain his development. For a team as big as Brazil, usually new players have to wait a little to get the moment, yeah like that. "
