The squad includes a number of promising young Brazilian players alongside several experienced names, while Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker was left out of the list announced by the coaching staff.
Ancelotti continues to work on shaping Brazil’s squad for the upcoming period, giving opportunities to several players who could play important roles for the national team in future competitions.
Brazil Squad for the Australia and India Friendlies
Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil squad is as follows:
Goalkeepers

Arthur Dias – Douglas Santos – Gabriel Magalhaes – Jair – Marquinhos – Matheuzinho – Mauro Junior – Vitor Reis – Wesley.
Midfielders
Andre Santos – Breno Bidon – Bruno Guimaraes – Danilo Santos – Douglas Luiz – Gabriel Pontempo – Matheus Martinelli.
Forwards

Alisson Missing From the Squad
The most notable aspect of Brazil’s squad is the absence of Alisson Becker, the Liverpool goalkeeper, from the team selected for the two friendly matches against Australia and India.
Alisson’s absence gives the other goalkeepers in the squad an opportunity to gain more playing time with the national team during the international break, while Brazil will look to use the friendly fixtures to assess as many players as possible.
The squad also features several young talents alongside established names such as Marquinhos, Bruno Guimaraes, Douglas Luiz, Raphinha and Vinicius Junior, creating a group that combines experience with emerging players.
The matches against Australia and India will provide another opportunity for Ancelotti to continue evaluating his options and developing Brazil’s tactical setup ahead of more important upcoming commitments, as the coaching staff works toward finding the best possible combination for the Selecao. 🇧🇷🔥
