Fans have noticed something very, very bizarre about Alex Telles' World Cup call-up video.

The Manchester United defender, who is on loan at Sevilla this season, has been called up to the Brazil squad for the 2022 World Cup.

He's joined by fellow defenders Thiago Silva, Dani Alves and Marquinhos, among others.

And just like many of his international colleagues, Telles' reaction to being called up to the Brazil squad has been captured on video.

The clip shows the 29-year-old breaking down in tears as he embraced his partner in an emotional moment.

But fans online have spotted something peculiar about Telles' living room.

Some people on social media have questioned the player having a Christmas tree up in early November.

One Twitter user wrote: "Alex Telles learning of his selection for the Brazilian World Cup squad. He's already put up his Christmas tree and we're not even mid November. Gotta love these crazy Man Utd players."

A second tweeted: "It’s November the 7th. Alex Telles has already put up his Christmas tree."

A third added: "Most shocking thing about the Brazil World Cup squad announcement is that Alex Telles already has his Christmas tree up."

A fourth commented: "Alex Telles gone very early with the Christmas tree there."

Manchester United star Antony was also reduced to tears after being called up to the Brazil squad for the World Cup.

He was watching the squad announcement with family and friends and leaped out of his seat after hearing his name called.

Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes cut an emotional figure, too.

He was overcome with emotion as he held his newborn baby son, Matteo.

He waited in anticipation as the announcement was made on TV and shortly after Silva was called out, Guimaraes' name rang around his living room and celebrations soon followed.
