Rafael prefers playing for Brazil than Manchester United

Rafael da Silva has admitted he is happier playing for Brazil than Manchester United.

The United full-back has helped Brazil reach the gold medal play-off at the Olympics.

"It is even more satisfying to be on the wing of Brazil.

“In England, I have more defensive obligations, I cannot go on the attack and have to hold back. Not here. I attack. I have more freedom and play with more pleasure," he said.
