This is the story of Brazil star Bruno Guimarães and his humble beginnings in Rio de Janeiro. While many elite footballers fight over classic jersey numbers like 7 or 10, Bruno has famously kept the number 39 throughout his career at Atletico Paranaense, Lyon, and Newcastle. The reason? It was the exact taxi dispatch number (#039) of the yellow cab his father, Dick, drove day and night to buy Bruno his first football boots, pay for his bus fares, and put food on the table. This brief look honours a father's sacrifice and a son who never forgot where he came from. #FIFAWorldCupOnYT #Brazil #haiti Brazil v Haiti | FIFA World Cup 2026™ | June 19 2026 | Pre-game FOLLOW FIFA’S TOURNAMENT CHANNELS BELOW!
