Ancelotti values the defender’s versatility and off-field attitude. He considers Danilo important on and off the pitch, able to play across the back line, and indicated he would be among the nine defenders in the final 26.

Danilo remains available for Flamengo. With him, the team face Red Bull Bragantino on Thursday 2 May at 21:30 Brasília time in the ninth round of the Brasileirão.

Rede Globo will broadcast the match free-to-air, with Premiere showing it on pay-per-view.
