⚠️ Ancelotti drops player from squad, names replacement | OneFootball

Goalkeeper Hugo Souza was cut from the Brazilian National Team's squad for this November's FIFA Date.

John, formerly of Botafogo and currently with Nottingham Forest, was called to take his place.

The Corinthians player had to be removed from the list due to an injury.

Hugo Souza already missed the team led by Dorival Júnior last Wednesday (5th), against Bragantino, in the Brasileirão.

He was Brazil's starter in the friendly against Japan in October.

John was announced as a reinforcement for Forest in the middle of this year and played two matches for the English club.

The first was in the 3-2 defeat to Swansea City in the English League Cup in September, and the second was in the goalless draw with Sturm Graz in the Europa League last Thursday (6th).
