Rayan Lucas yet to debut for Sporting, but enjoying one of his best spells | OneFootball

Rayan Lucas, midfielder for Sporting, was called up this Friday, September 19, by the Brazilian national team for the U-20 World Cup, which takes place in Chile between September 27 and October 19. After the first preparation camp, the defensive midfielder, who joined this season, has once again earned the trust of Ramon Menezes.

In addition to receiving the 20-year-old midfielder from the lions, the Brazilian national team will also be able to count on Felipe Longo, Lucas Furtado, Otávio, Gilberto, Igor Serrote, Leandrinho, Léo Derik, Iago, Bruno Alves, João Souza, Coutinho, João Cruz, Murilo, Rhuan Gabriel, Deivid Washington, Gustavo Prado, Luighi, Pedrinho, Wesley, and Erick Belé.

With the call-up already made by Ramon Menezes, Brazil will make its debut in the U-20 World Cup against Mexico, on the upcoming September 29, at midnight. The canarinhos are part of Group C where they will also face the national teams of Spain and Morocco.

It is worth remembering that Rayan Lucas joined the Alvalade Club on a loan valid until the end of the season. Despite starting the pre-season with the main squad under the command of Rui Borges, the Brazilian now joins João Gião's B team.

At the start of this season, Rayan Lucas has already played four matches for Sporting's B team, always as a starter. In total, he has accumulated 305 minutes under João Gião's command. The Brazilian midfielder has also been called up for commitments with the main squad but ended the matches as an unused substitute.
