Brazil squad: Ancelotti call-up time, 5 Flamengo players included | OneFootball

Coach announces this Wednesday (01) the list of players called up for Brazil’s friendlies against South Korea and Japan

The coach Carlo Ancelotti will announce, this Wednesday (01), at 3pm (Brasília time), the official list of names to represent the Brazilian National Team. The call-up will be broadcast live on SporTV, on cable TV, and on GeTV, on YouTube.

As usual, there is great anticipation to find out which athletes will be chosen for the October friendlies. Among the pre-selected, five players from Flamengo appear on the list: Alex Sandro, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira, Pedro, and Samuel Lino.

Because of this, Flamengo is already preparing for possible absences in the midst of a decisive phase of the season. The official confirmation, therefore, will be released soon, with the announcement of the final list.

WHAT ARE BRAZIL’S FRIENDLIES?

The Brazilian National Team will gather next Monday (06), in Seoul. Next, they face South Korea on the 10th, in the Korean capital, and then face Japan on the 14th, in Tokyo. Both matches, by the way, will serve as important tests for Ancelotti’s team.

COULD FLAMENGO HAVE OTHER PLAYERS CALLED UP?

Besides the names on Brazil’s pre-list, other national teams may also call up players from Flamengo. Uruguay, for example, is expected to call up Arrascaeta, Varela, De La Cruz, and Viña.

Likewise, Ecuador and Colombia are expected to include Plata and Carrascal, respectively. Finally, Agustín Rossi still dreams of an opportunity with the Argentine national team.

HOW IS FLAMENGO PREPARING FOR THIS PHASE OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP?

Despite the possible absences, Flamengo remains fully focused on the Brasileirão. This Thursday (02), the red-and-black team faces Cruzeiro, the competition’s runner-up, in a direct clash at Maracanã. The match kicks off at 8:30pm (Brasília time), with a promise of a packed stadium and a decisive atmosphere.
