Manchester United‘s Fabio da Silva is prepared to battle it out with his twin brother Rafael in an attempt to seal the right-back position at his club.

The 23-year old has made it clear that neither of the them will have any qualms over playing at the cost of other when it comes to representing the Red Devils.

The Brazilian full-back, speaking to The Sun, said: “My brother and I are going to fight for the right-back position.

“Why not? We have always fought over everything, PlayStation, anything. we fight with each other to win. This is no different. Now we are 23 we are mature.

“It’s not important whether me or him plays but that we do well. It’s a big thing to play for United. We just have to play and enjoy it.”
