According to the report by Coluna do Fla, Flamengo has already received the communication from the CBF about the presence of the four players on Ancelotti's pre-list. In this way, if any of them are called up, they will be at Ancelotti's disposal for the games against Chile (Maracanã) and Bolivia (El Alto), matches valid for the last rounds of the Qualifiers.
Brazil's first commitment in the next FIFA Date will take place on September 4, when they face Chile, at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at the Maracanã. Next, the 'Canarinho' will travel to El Mato to face Bolivia, at 8:30 PM (Brasília time), on the 9th of the same month.

Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira, Alex Sandro and Danilo make up the starting defensive system of Flamengo. The defenders, in fact, are fundamental pieces and form the trusted duo of coach Filipe Luís. The left-back also brings a lot of balance and quality to the position.
It is important to note that Léo Pereira may make his debut for the Brazilian Brasileirão. The number 4 has not even been included in the call-up list, and if he has his name mentioned next Monday (25), he will achieve an unprecedented feat in his career. The experienced Danilo recently returned from a thigh injury and, despite this, is present on the 'Canarinho' pre-list. Finally, Samuel Lino, who recently met with Ancelotti in Rio de Janeiro, is living in expectation of playing for the 'Amarelinha'.
Before the call-ups, Flamengo takes the field to face Internacional this Wednesday (20), in the return of the round of 16 of the Libertadores. In short, the ball rolls at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at the Estádio Beira-Rio, in Porto Alegre. Thus, the Coluna do Fla TV shows all the details of the match, on YouTube. The Rede Globo (open channel), ESPN (closed) and Disney+ (streaming) will broadcast the match.
