Henrique delighted with Brazil call-up

Napoli defender Henrique has expressed his delight at being called up to the Brazil squad for this summer's World Cup.

"I'm feeling great joy," Henrique told Calcio Napoli 24. "I found out at home by Brazilian television.

"I want to share the credit with Rafael Benitez, the club and the team."
