🇧🇷 Ancelotti names Brazil squad at 3pm, what to expect from the list | OneFootball

Carlo Ancelotti will announce on Wednesday (1st), at 3pm, the list of players called up for the Brazilian National Team for the friendlies against South Korea and Japan, scheduled for this October FIFA date.

The great expectation revolves around the returns of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, who were left out of the last call-up for the Qualifiers.

The number 7 from Real was not called up last time, due to being suspended for the qualifying tournament round, while Rodrygo was left out, to recover his physical and mental form.

The coach, however, will not be able to count on other important players, such as, for example, Raphinha and Marquinhos, injured, in addition to Alexsandro Ribeiro, Andrey Santos and goalkeeper Alisson, all also recovering from physical problems.

From the Brazilian clubs, Flamengo is the most interested in this call-up, as it has five players on Ancelotti's pre-list, according to information from the newspaper Lance! and journalist Venê Casagrande.

They are: Alex Sandro, Léo Ortiz, Samuel Lino, Pedro and Léo Pereira.

The Brazilian delegation will meet next Monday (6), in Seoul.

Brazil will face South Korea on October 10, in the capital, and then head to Tokyo, where they face Japan on the 14th.
