The 29-year-old dribbler has missed Brazil's last two matches in the World Cup - the group-stage finale against Scotland and the round of 16 against Japan - after going off injured against Haiti on June 20.

Ahead of Sunday's match against Norway, Carlo Ancelotti now has positive news about Raphinha, reports The Athletic.

"He is still not 100 percent. He may be on the bench to play a few minutes so we can use him. But he is recovering very quickly," Ancelotti said.

The match between Brazil and Norway kicks off at 10:00 p.m. Swedish time.
