The latest FIFA international break was a landmark moment in Léo Nannetti’s football journey. That’s because Flamengo’s under-20 number 1 was part of the Brazilian National Team squad. After the experience, the Rubro-Negro player made a point of expressing his gratitude for the opportunity he received with the ‘Seleção’.
“Thank you, Lord. A period of great growth and learning,” said Léo Nannetti in an Instagram post. Along with the message, the Flamengo goalkeeper also shared images from the time he spent representing Brazil.

Léo Nannetti took part in Brazilian National Team training sessions in the United States. In this way, the experience served as a kind of ‘exchange’ for the youngster alongside more experienced players.
Throughout the entire FIFA international break, Léo Nannetti worked under Taffarel, the Brazilian National Team’s goalkeeping coach. As a result, the just 18-year-old Flamengo player trained daily with Ederson, Bento, and Hugo Souza in the ‘Seleção’ setup.
It is important to point out that, despite taking part in training, Léo Nannetti was not included in the squad for either of Brazil’s two matches during this FIFA international break. As a result, the Flamengo player watched the clashes against France and Croatia from the stands.
After the end of the FIFA international break, Léo Nannetti is back at Flamengo. As such, the number 1 has rejoined Mengão’s under-20 squad. Before joining the Brazilian National Team, in fact, the player featured in Rubro-Negro’s Under-20 Libertadores campaign in Quito, Ecuador.
