Brazil men's under-20 squad announced | OneFootball

The Brazil men’s under-20 team, which will compete in the South American Championship for the category between August 22 and 30 in Lima, Peru, has been called up by head coach Juninho Santos. The coach selected 12 players for the competition, and all of them will report on August 13 in Rio de Janeiro for the start of training.

“This competition will be another great opportunity for us to evaluate the boys, who are the future of Brazilian beach soccer. Together with the entire coaching staff, I made this squad selection while keeping the core group that won the North Zone title of the Liga Evolução in Ecuador in May, along with some new players so they can start gaining experience. We’re going for the title,” said Juninho.
