Thiago Silva left out of Brazil's squad for the 2026 World Cup

Thiago Silva will not be taking part in the 2026 World Cup. This Monday, May 18, Carlo Ancelotti announced Brazil’s squad list, and the centre-back, who joined FC Porto in the winter transfer window, was left out of the selection.

After a spell at Fluminense in Brazil, where he spent two years, Thiago Silva joined FC Porto on a contract running until the summer of 2026. In 2025/26, the 41-year-old centre-back made 14 appearances in a season in which the Dragons won the Primeira Liga.
