Brazil’s Under-20 National Team began preparations this Tuesday (4) for the friendlies against Bolivia. The first training session took place at Granja Comary, in Teresópolis, Rio de Janeiro, marking the start of another training period for the team led by Paulo Victor.

After the squad assembled, the players took part in their first on-field activity. The session focused on group integration and the coaching staff’s initial adjustments, making use of the preparation period to observe the players and continue the team-building process.

The friendlies against Bolivia are part of the coaching staff’s plan to build the squad that will compete in the 2027 South American Under-20 Championship. In addition to tactical and technical aspects, the training period also serves to strengthen the team’s playing identity, broaden the evaluation of the called-up players, and promote integration among the squad members.

"These matches are very important for the team’s development. We have been taking advantage of every opportunity to observe more players and make changes from one match to another. The idea is to stay on this path so that, in January, we can make the best decisions and represent Brazil in the best possible way at the South American Championship."

The group will return to training on Wednesday morning (5) to continue preparations.
