Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro were called up by the Brazil National Team to play in the 2026 World Cup. However, before the tournament, the two Flamengo players are waiting to see if they will start against Panama on Sunday (31), in a friendly at the Maracanã.
This is because Ancelotti sees Alex Sandro as the starting left back for the Brazil National Team. Therefore, the Flamengo player is expected to be in the starting 11 against Panama at the Maracanã.
In addition, Léo Pereira is also expected to start for the Brazil National Team against Panama. That’s because Marquinhos and Gabriel Magalhães will be available for PSG (FRA) and Arsenal (ENG), respectively, for the Champions League final.
As the final between PSG and Arsenal is scheduled for this Saturday (30), Marquinhos and Gabriel Magalhães will only join the Brazil National Team in the United States. Therefore, Léo Pereira should be the starter against Panama.
The Brazil National Team faces Panama starting at 6:30 p.m. Brasília time this Sunday (31), at the Maracanã, in a friendly as preparation for the World Cup. Therefore, Rede Globo, on free-to-air TV, will broadcast the match throughout Brazil.
