Corinthians forward called up by Colombia for next Fifa window | OneFootball

Corinthians has had another player called up for the upcoming FIFA international window. Forward Gisela Robledo has been selected by the Colombia national team for the two matches against Venezuela, scheduled for October 10 and 13, and could now become an absentee for Timão in its Women’s Libertadores debut.

The No. 7’s call-up was announced this Friday and places Gisela among the players who will represent Colombia in the next international window. The squad list also includes six other players who currently play or have played in Brazilian football, including Daniela Arias, a former Corinthians player.

From domestic football, Katherine Tapia and Ana Guzmán of Palmeiras, Lorena Bedoya and Gabriela Rodríguez of Cruzeiro, and Wendy Bonilla of Santos were also called up by coach Angelo Marsiglia.

With Gisela’s inclusion in the Colombian squad, Corinthians now has five players called up for this FIFA international window. In addition to the forward, Thaís Ferreira, Duda Sampaio, Jaqueline, and Jhonson were selected by the Brazilian national team for the friendlies against Argentina, also on October 10 and 13.

The close timing between the international matches and the Libertadores is causing concern for Corinthians. The team opens its continental campaign on October 15 at 5 p.m. (Brasília time) against Colo-Colo of Chile, and Gisela could still be involved with the Colombian national team just a few days before the match.

As for the players who will represent Brazil, Corinthians is already working alongside Palmeiras and Cruzeiro to find a logistical solution that will allow the athletes to travel quickly to Ecuador.

The three clubs, which will also have representatives in the Libertadores, are considering splitting the cost of chartering an aircraft. The idea is to transport the called-up players directly from Recife, where the Brazilian national team will play the second friendly against Argentina, to Quito, host city of the continental tournament.

The expectation is that the players will arrive in the Ecuadorian capital by October 14, before lunchtime. The measure is intended to reduce travel time and provide a longer rest period before their Libertadores debuts.

There is still no decision, however, on a similar operation involving Gisela Robledo, since the forward will have commitments with Colombia during the same FIFA international window.

Signed by Corinthians, Gisela has been one of the team’s attacking options throughout the season. In 2026, the forward played 25 matches for Timão, scoring three goals and providing four assists.

The Colombian’s stay is also secured for longer. At the end of August, Gisela renewed her contract with the black-and-white club until mid-2027.

Now, Corinthians is waiting for the Colombian national team’s schedule to be finalized to find out whether it will be able to count on its No. 7 as early as the first match of its Women’s Libertadores campaign.
