The Brazilian National Team is about to take the field again for the Qualifiers in matches against Chile and Bolivia. With these games in mind, coach Carlo Ancelotti will announce the names of the called-up players at 3:30 pm (Brasília time) this Monday (25th). Thus, five players from Flamengo may appear on the final ‘Seleção’ list.
The names of the called-up players will be revealed at 3:30 pm (Brasília time) this Monday (25th), at the headquarters of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), in the West Zone of Rio de Janeiro. On the final list, Léo Pereira, Leo Ortiz, Danilo, Alex Sandro and Samuel Lino, from Flamengo, have a chance of being available to Ancelotti for the next FIFA window.
Ancelotti has selected a good part of Flamengo’s defensive system for the Brazil National Team’s preliminary list. Of the names mentioned, only Léo Pereira has not yet played for the ‘Seleção’. That is, if he is on the final call-up, the number 4 will make his debut for Brazil. Finally, Samuel Lino, who recently met with the ‘Seleção’ coach at a restaurant in Rio de Janeiro, is also pre-selected.
Brazil’s next two matches will be for the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers. On September 4th, the national team will host Chile at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. Finally, the ‘Seleção’ will travel to face Bolivia on the 9th of the same month, at 8:30 pm (Brasília time).
