Tottenham winger Lucas Moura has described himself as a "right-wing conservative" after throwing his support behind controversial Brazil president Jair Bolsonaro.
Brazil's presidential elections will take place next month, with Bolsonaro aiming to win a second term in office. The 67-year-old is viewed as a far-right candidate by many after expressing homophobic, sexist, racist and anti-environmentalist views. He also attempted to downplay the Covid pandemic, leading to a high death toll in Brazil.
Bolsonaro is currently losing in the polls to ex-president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and there are fears the incumbent could use his military connections to stage a coup if he loses. The first round of the presidential votes in Brazil will take place on October 2.
