Brazil’s national team head coach Carlo Ancelotti is finalizing the squad for the upcoming World Cup.

Details: As reported by ESPN Brasil, the final roster will closely resemble the team selected for the recent friendlies against France and Croatia. Ancelotti, who will take over the team in 2025, indicated that the core group is “pretty much set,” leaving no room for further changes.

A significant update is that Neymar is likely to miss the tournament. The 34-year-old striker from Santos is still dealing with multiple injuries, raising concerns for Brazil’s head coach.

Ancelotti emphasizes that in his approach, physical preparedness and intensity take priority over star names.
