What is the Brazil U-20 National Team’s plan for the matches against Bolivia?

Brazil’s U-20 National Team has begun another preparation process aimed at competing in the South American Championship for the category, which will take place in 2027. This Tuesday (05), Léo Nannetti, Flamengo’s goalkeeper, and the other players called up to the ‘Seleção’ reported to Granja Comary.

During this period, coach Paulo Victor will have more opportunities to get to know the called-up players. Therefore, the training sessions will be crucial for the manager to get the best out of the athletes and, in addition, start shaping the team with the 2027 South American Championship in mind.

Besides the activities, Paulo Victor will also have two friendlies against Bolivia, both to be played at Granja Comary, in Teresópolis, Rio de Janeiro. The first will be on Sunday (09), at 11 a.m. (Brasília time), while the second takes place on August 12, at 10 a.m. (Brasília time).

WHAT IS THE SITUATION OF FLAMENGO GOALKEEPER LÉO NANNETTI WITH THE BRAZIL NATIONAL TEAM?

Léo Nannetti arrives with high confidence in this Brazil U-20 National Team preparation window. That is because, during the World Cup period, Flamengo’s goalkeeper was part of the entire preparation of the ‘Seleção’.

Léo Nannetti’s presence with Brazil happened because of a request from Taffarel, the goalkeeping coach, who likes to work with four players in the position. In this way, the Flamengo goalkeeper was with the called-up squad from Granja Comary to the training sessions held in the United States.

WHAT IS LÉO NANNETTI’S CURRENT SITUATION AT FLAMENGO?

After Brazil’s participation in the World Cup ended, Léo Nannetti was given a few vacation days before returning to Flamengo training. According to journalist Rodrigo Lima of Coluna do Fla, the goalkeeper is well regarded at the club, but he still remains an option for the club’s U-20 side.

At the moment, Léo Nannetti appears as the fourth-choice goalkeeper for Flamengo’s senior squad. Therefore, the 18-year-old took part in the latest activities at CT Ninho do Urubu before reporting to the Brazil National Team.
