The preliminary list for the Brazilian National Team for the upcoming FIFA Date has a major ABSENCE and at least two new faces.
According to GE, Vini Júnior will not be called up. However, Éder Militão and Rodrygo are on the preliminary list and could return to the National Team.
Vini Jr is suspended for one game in the Qualifiers. Out against Chile, he could play against Bolivia at high altitude.
But coach Carlo Ancelotti prefers to leave the Real Madrid striker out of the trip to the 4,100-meter altitude.
While Vini Jr is left out, Militão and Rodrygo (also from Real) – who were absent in the last call-up – may reappear.
Last week, OneFootball had already reported that Neymar is on the preliminary list for the Brazilian National Team.
GE did not release other names on the preliminary list. The final squad list will be announced next Monday (25).
Brazil will face Chile on September 4, a Thursday, at 9:30 p.m., at Maracanã.
After that, they will visit Bolivia on the 9th, a Tuesday, at 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time), in El Alto, Bolivia.
The Brazilian National Team is already guaranteed a spot in the 2026 World Cup. Therefore, these two matches will serve as "tests" with an eye on the World Cup.
