Brazil's towering inferno - Dante

[KingFemzee]

Until a couple of weeks ago, the only people to recognise Dante's hefty frame walking around his hometown of Salvador during the Bundesliga's winter break would be some German tourists. On Wednesday, though, as he prepares to make his debut at the heart of the Selecao defence against England, that will all change.
                                                          After leaving his homeland as a virtual unknown almost 10 years ago, Dante has had a long road to the top, but after becoming one of Bayern Munich's signings for the 2012-13 season, he is likely to get his maiden cap alongside fellow floppy-haired defender David Luiz.
