Danilo says Juventus team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo has joked with him that Brazil would have five more World Cup wins to their name had he hailed from the South American nation.
Ronaldo has worked alongside Danilo at Real Madrid and Juve, with the Brazil international defender admitting to being a big fan of the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
He told the DAZN series Saudade: "I have known Cris since Real Madrid and now it's very nice reuniting with him at Juventus.
“He has an eye for detail and that, along with his natural quality, makes it impossible that he wouldn't be reaping the results that he has been.
“If he played for Brazil, we would have five more World Cups by now, he jokes.”
