Eyeing the World Cup: ex-Flamengo man is Roma's most-fouled | OneFootball

Carlo Ancelotti has called up Wesley since arriving at the Brazilian National Team

Flamengo sold Wesley to Roma (ITA) in mid-2025. Since then, the youth product from the club’s academy has become a standout. As a result, the full-back, who dreams of playing in the World Cup, is the player on the Italian team who has been fouled the most this season.

So far, Wesley has suffered 77 fouls in the 2025/26 season. In addition to playing at right-back, coach Gian Piero Gasperini has also used the former Flamengo player as a left wing-back. The data comes from ‘Sofascore’.

What are the former Flamengo player’s full stats?

One of Wesley’s goals came on Monday (04), when Roma thrashed Fiorentina (ITA) in the 35th round of the Italian Championship. The wing-back then blasted a shot into the top corner past David de Gea, formerly of Manchester United (ENG).

Will Wesley be at the World Cup?

Carlo Ancelotti has already called up the Ninho do Urubu academy product five times since taking over the Brazilian National Team. Therefore, it is almost certain that the full-back will be at the World Cup, which begins on June 11.
