Carlo Ancelotti continues to work on planning for the Brazil National Team with an eye on the 2026 World Cup. In the next FIFA window, which takes place in November, the Italian coach is considering calling up more players from Brazilian football, which could end up affecting Flamengo.
Ancelotti’s intention for the next call-up is to give more opportunities and observe other players. Thus, some Flamengo athletes who have already appeared on recent Brazil lists could return in November, such as Samuel Lino, Alex Sandro, Danilo, among others. The information about calling up more players who play in Brazil comes from ‘GE’.
The next FIFA window is scheduled for November. The Brazil National Team will face Senegal in England and Tunisia in France. With that, Ancelotti will have another opportunity to implement his working methodology to try to ‘stamp’ more names on the final list for the World Cup.
It’s important to emphasize that Ancelotti could end up affecting Flamengo during this FIFA window if he calls up any player from the club. That’s because it will be precisely during this period that the Rubro-Negro is expected to take the field to play a postponed round of the Brasileirão. For now, Mengo faces Sport on November 13, with the venue to be determined.
While the FIFA window only takes place in November, Flamengo is focused on the next fixtures of the season. This Wednesday (15), Mengo faces Botafogo in the 28th round of the Brasileirão.
The ball rolls for the derby at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Engenhão. Thus, Coluna do Fla TV shows the details of the match on YouTube. Finally, Record (free-to-air TV), Premiere (pay-per-view), and CazéTV (YouTube) broadcast the derby.
