Was he in Brazil’s squad for the 1998 World Cup ? I remember him scoring against Costa Rica in 2002 (his only goal with Brazil), but I don’t recall his presence in 1998 ??

William, Prince of Wales is 41 today.

Unlike his father and grandmother, he won't need to have an "official" birthday when he becomes King.  The monarch's birthday is usually celebrated in June with the Trooping of the Colour ceremony.   William's Midsummer Day birthday means that it fits in with that tradition, although the ceremony may not be on the exact day.
