Brazil right-back Danilo has been ruled out of the rest of the World Cup after sustaining ankle ligament damage in training on Thursday.
The Manchester City defender played in Brazil’s opening 1-1 draw with Switzerland in Group E after Dani Alves was injured before the tournament began.
Fagner of Corinthians has played at right-back since and Danilo’s World Cup is now over, with the news coming the day before Brazil face Belgium in their quarter-final clash in Kazan on Friday.
Danilo will now be assessed by Brazil’s medical team to ascertain the extent of the injury.
