Impact Telles was shown his fifth yellow card of the season and will serve a one-match ban against Valencia on April 16. This is the most yellow cards he has been shown since 2015 when the defender was with Inter Milan.

Impact Telles relieved Alex Sandro (thigh) in the final group stage game. Danilo, who can also play as left-back in a pinch, is also battling an injury, so Brazil could be significantly depleted in the next game. Telles will take further tests and make a decision on surgery once he'll be back in Sevilla.

Logs assist in loss Telles assisted once to go with eight crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 2-1 defeat versus Real Sociedad.

Impact Telles only started once in the final three games before the World Cup, as both he and Marcos Acuna were rotated to stay sharp across multiple competitions and ahead of the World Cup. With three assists in 19 appearances between the league and UCL, Telles will hope he's also trusted to contribute during Brazil's forays in Qatar.

Brazil coach Tite has included nine forwards in his World Cup squad

NOVEMBER 7, 2022 • Associated Press

Sends in five crosses Telles had five crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-0 win over Mallorca.

Impact Telles is a menace from the left side of the field by launching balls into the middle of the field for Sevilla. He now averages 4.3 crosses a match to bring his total to 43 crosses in all competitions thus far. The Brazilian would like to be added to the scoresheet more often but has been playing considerably well none the less with an assist, 25 crosses (five accurate), nine corners, five interceptions and five clearances in the last five matches.

Impact Telles was back in the starting XI and provided a lot of support on the attacking end as usual, including a game-high 10 crosses and an assist for Youssef En-Nesyri to score Sevilla's lone goal. The left-back started in all three UCL matches so far this season but has just one La Liga start. With Marcos Acuna (strain) and Karim Rekik (hamstring) both injured, Telles will probably put up a streak of games started during the upcoming weeks.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Busy in draw Telles kept a clean sheet and created one chance from eight crosses (three accurate) during Wednesday's scoreless draw with Copenhagen.

Impact Telles could be staking his claim in the starting lineup with more performances like this one. As he's only started three times in six matches to open the season, he and Marcos Acuna will continue to compete for starts over the next month.
