Samuel Lino’s fine Flamengo form ahead of Ancelotti’s Brazil squad announcement | OneFootball

Samuel Lino has dispelled early doubts at Flamengo and is now in eye-catching form, his name back in the frame for Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil squad.

According to Coluna Do Fla, Ancelotti will unveil his first list next Wednesday at 15:00 Brasília time at CBF headquarters, as planning turns towards 2030.

Across Flamengo’s past five matches, Lino has scored four times, contributed assists and worked tirelessly without the ball. Against Mirassol on Wednesday at Maracanã, he helped build the move finished by Carrascal.

After that win, Lino said he felt calm about the prospect of a call, would be grateful if it happened, and remains focused on Flamengo, viewing any Brazil chance as a consequence of his work at the club.

He has been close before, having made Ancelotti’s preliminary list for the last World Cup.

The upcoming call-up will focus on friendlies in September and October against Australia and India. Before then, Lino has another outing for Flamengo in the Brasileirão against Remo on Sunday, with kick-off at 16:00 Brasília time at Estádio Mangueirão.
