Dorival Júnior's first call-up as the new coach of the Brazilian National Team is about to happen, and straight away, the coach could leave Flamengo missing. This is because, for the former player Vampeta, the coach will be able to call Pedro, Gerson and Fabrício Bruno. The commentator also recalled that Mais Querido filed a letter with the CBF to stop the Brazilian Championship during the Copa América.
“Nine clubs asked to postpone the Brasileiro games because of the Copa América. On the 1st (March) Dorival will be called up. I'm looking forward to seeing if players who play in the country go. Flamengo is one of the clubs that went there to ask the CBF. The four Uruguayans are called up plus the Chilean. Of the Brazilians, Pedro, Gerson and Fabrício Bruno can go”, said Vampeta on the program Bate Pronto, on Jovem Pan.
According to Vampeta, the statement that Dorival made that he would look more closely at Brazilian football in his call-ups, ended for encouraging all the players who play in the country and now everyone is waiting to be called up by the Canarinho coach.
“Most players dream of going to their national teams. Having a coach who, in the first press conference, says he will keep an eye on Brazilian football, doesn't that motivate several players who have this dream? Paulinho, Raphael Veiga, Gerson, Pedro… the guys dream of being in the national team. There will be Copa América and Qualifiers now”, he highlighted.
MORE DEFAULTS FOR FLAMENGOIn addition to running the risk of losing players to the Brazilian team, Mais Querido could also suffer absences from other athletes on the main team. This is because Arrascaeta, Varela, Nicolás De La Cruz and Matías Viña could be called up by Uruguay, in addition to Erick Pulgar representing Chile. Therefore, Tite will have a lot of headaches during the Brazilian Championship.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

Due to his prominence at Real Madrid and being among the finalists for the Ballon d'Or, Vinícius Júnior ends up dealing with great expectations from the Brazilian public whenever he defends the Brazilian team. However, according to Dorival Júnior, it is necessary to measure one's hopes and demands and be patient for the attacker to repeat his feats with Amarelinha.
The former Flamengo coach also highlighted in a press conference after the victory against Ecuador, which Vini Jr has recently faced a scenario similar to what Neymar has faced since he came into football: being responsible for solving Brazil's problems.
"We want to see the athlete producing at all times, in every moment in the same way he does at the club. We have cycles within the clubs, there are moments when Rodrygo will be the highlight for a month, two months, soon Vini will enter this same condition... We are at the beginning of the season, we can't forget that", pondered Dorival, before completing:
"We always generate great expectations from boys who are still in the process of completing training and physical recovery. It's been an exhausting year. We need to be very calm. This is the same expectation generated by Neymar, who at all times had to be the solution to our problems", said the Canarinho coach.
VINI JR WITH THE BRAZILIAN SELECTIONIn the last Copa América, Vini Jr's performance was not well received by the fans. This is because, despite the striker having scored two goals in the victory against Paraguay, in the first phase, he was suspended for accumulating yellow cards, leaving him out. elimination against Uruguay, in the quarter-finals.
At just 24 years old and playing for the main team since 2019, Vinícius Júnior has already played 34 games, but scored just five goals, different numbers from his last seasons with Real Madrid.
