The CBF will announce this Thursday (18) the final list of players called up for the Under-20 World Cup. The call-up is eagerly awaited at Vasco. The club hopes for the confirmation of a backstage negotiation that should ensure the stay of one of its main athletes, but also the release of another young talent.

Vasco should not release its main promise

The big news for Vasco should be the absence of forward Rayan from the list. The club had already informed the CBF that it would not release the player. The decision is based on the regulations. Since the Under-20 World Cup is not played on a “FIFA Date", clubs are not obliged to release their athletes.

The stay of Rayan is considered crucial. After all, the team is fighting to distance itself from the Z4 in the Brasileirão and is in the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil.

Another "homegrown" has a great chance of being called up

On the other hand, left-back Leandrinho has a great chance of being called up. The player is a trusted name of the base team's technical commission. His presence at the World Cup, which takes place in Chile between September 27 and October 19, is already expected backstage.

The CBF has not pre-established a time for the list's release. The announcement will be made through the entity's social networks throughout this Thursday. The Vasco fans, therefore, await the official confirmation that will ensure their main striker for the final and decisive stretch of the season.
