Coach Carlo Ancelotti will announce this Monday (25), at 3:30 pm , the 23 players who will represent the Brazilian National Team in the two final matches of the Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup . The matches will be against Chile, on September 4, at Maracanã , and against Bolivia, on the 9th, at El Alto Municipal Stadium.
The squad will be announced live at the CBF headquarters in Rio de Janeiro , with live broadcasts nationwide. Even with qualification for the World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, already assured, Ancelotti is expected to make significant changes to the squad.
Among the new players, names that play in Brazil are expected to gain prominence. The Italian coach watched several matches in the country during the last FIFA International Day and opted to include prominent players from the national scene. Flamengo could be represented by Danilo, Léo Pereira, Léo Ortiz, Alex Sandro, and Samuel Lino, all of whom were on the preliminary squad list.
Additionally, players from other Brazilian teams are also on the radar. Cruzeiro, for example, has four pre-selected players, including Kaio Jorge, Matheus Pereira, and Fabrício Bruno. Goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão, currently with Santos and a product of the Minas Gerais team , is also considered for inclusion.
The preliminary list includes Neymar, but the striker's presence is uncertain . Santos reported last Saturday (23) that the player is treating an edema in his thigh. If he is not called up, he will complete two years without wearing the Brazilian National Team shirt.
The main confirmed absence is Vinicius Jr. Suspended for the match against Chile , the Real Madrid striker was removed from the pre-list and, even though he has been cleared to play against Bolivia, he will be preserved by decision of the coaching staff.

Flamengo is ready to face Vitória , this Monday (25), in a duel valid for the 21st round of the Brazilian Championship. Coach Filipe Luís outlined the starting team with Saúl and Jorginho in midfield and Pedro leading the attack.
With practically the entire squad at his disposal, coach Filipe Luís should send onto the field a Flamengo with: Rossi; Varela (Royal), Léo Ortiz (Danilo), Léo Pereira, Alex Sandro; Jorginho, Saúl, Arrascaeta, Plata (Luiz Araújo), Samuel Lino and Pedro.
The only confirmed absence is Erick Pulgar, who is still recovering from a fractured right foot suffered during the Club World Cup —an injury that required surgery. Otherwise, Filipe Luís will have virtually his entire squad available for the match.
This round is crucial in the title race. Flamengo leads the Brasileirão with 43 points, two ahead of Cruzeiro , who have already won this round and reached 41. Palmeiras, with 39 points, also plays this Monday and could close the gap.
The Flamengo vs. Vitória clash takes place at 9 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã stadium. The match will be broadcast live on SporTV (a cable channel) and Premiere (pay-per-view). While Flamengo is leading, Vitória is looking to score points to escape the relegation zone.

Young midfielder Matheus Gonçalves, a Flamengo talent , is experiencing a period of uncertainty in his career. Without a place in the main squad, he was reinstated to the youth academy after the coaching staff determined his performance wasn't up to expectations.
Even so, the athlete continues to attract interest in the market. After inquiries from several clubs, including a rejected offer from Cruzeiro, CSKA Moscow appears to be the leading candidate to sign him.
According to information gathered by Gazeta do Urubu , talks between the Russian club and the player's representatives are already underway. CSKA is reportedly willing to pay around €5 million, plus bonuses for milestones, to acquire the player's rights outright.
Matheus Gonçalves, 20, is seen as a strategic asset to the Russian team's sporting project, which is seeking promising young players to bolster its attacking position. To date, however, the Rio de Janeiro club has not officially commented on a possible sale, nor has it confirmed any negotiations.
Flamengo's board has not yet indicated whether it intends to negotiate with the player . Internally, there is an understanding that Matheus is an important asset for the future, although the lack of opportunities in the main squad has fueled speculation about his departure.
