Check out the updated Brazil squad list 📋 | OneFootball

Carlo Ancelotti announced the Brazil squad for the friendlies against Australia and India on the 9th. And on Saturday (19), he made his second cut. 

Vanderson, of Monaco, was chosen to replace Wesley.

The Roma player featured for the full 90 minutes in Saturday’s match against Inter Milan, but an injury was confirmed. And he had to be withdrawn.

A Flamengo academy product, Wesley suffers another disappointment, as he had been part of the group that would play in the World Cup until being cut while still preparing in Brazil.

Vanderson, meanwhile, gets another chance after having been part of the previous cycle.

He is a starter for the current Ligue 1 leaders under Filipe Luís.

The first player to be cut had been João Pedro, Chelsea’s striker.

He was left out of the final squad for the Club World Cup and was getting another chance.

Martinelli, a Fluminense midfielder, was the one who got the opportunity.

The first training session already has a set date

The first players will report this Sunday (20) in Brisbane, Australia.

The first training session on Australian soil is scheduled for 4 p.m. local time on Monday (21).

Brisbane is 13 hours ahead of Brasília.  

Brazil will face Australia for the first time next Friday (25), at Queensland Country Bank Stadium in Townsville.

The second match against the Socceroos will be four days later (29), at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.

Then comes an unprecedented clash against India. The match will be on October 3 at Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata.
