Dunga recalls Robinho to Brazil squad following Hulk injury

By , Reporter
Brazil coach Dunga decides to recall veteran striker and former Manchester City player Robinho for his country's friendly fixtures next month.

Brazil head coach Dunga has decided to recall former Manchester City striker Robinho to his first squad as the nation's new manager.

Robinho has been brought in to replace injured striker Hulk as Brazil prepare to take part in two friendly fixtures next month after their crushing elimination as World Cup hosts earlier this summer.

Dunga will lead his side into fixtures against South American sides Colombia and Ecuador as he bids to help the nation recover from their 7-1 destruction at the hands of Germany in Belo Horizonte.

Robinho has not featured for his country since a set of friendlies in late 2013.
