The first point on the list of coach Carlo Ancelotti, who took the helm of the Brazilian national team, was a change.

On the 27th (Korea time), the Brazilian Football Association released a list of 25 players to play in the A-match in June. Brazil, which will play in the South American qualifying round for the 2026 North American World Cup, will play Ecuador on June 6 and Paraguay on June 11. Brazil is currently in fourth place with 21 points.

Brazil in crisis has recently taken a winning move. On the 12th, the Brazilian Football Association announced on its official channel that Carlo Ancelotti had been appointed as the head coach of the A-team. Ancelotti was named the first foreign head coach in 60 years since Argentina's Filippo Núñez in 1965. There have previously been a total of three coaches of different nationalities in Brazilian football history, all of whom were interim coaches. Ancelotti is actually the first full-time foreign coach.




Ancelotti signed a one-year short contract until the 2026 World Cup in North Korea and the U.S. According to Brazilian local media Globo, Ancelotti's annual salary is 10 million euros (about 15.7 billion won), which is similar to the amount he is currently receiving from Real Madrid. If you win the North Korea-China World Cup, you will receive a bonus of 5 million euros (about 7.9 billion won).

"Brazilian Football Association President Ednaud Rodríguez said, "Bringing Ancelotti as Brazil's coach is a strategic move beyond that. This is a statement to the world that we are determined to return to normalcy" with joy.

The reason why Brazil pulled out its foreign coach card is because of the poor performance of the national team. Brazil has moved away from the Jules Rimet Cup since the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup. In the current North Korea-China World Cup Latin American qualifying round, it remains in fourth place. It is the worst report card since the Korea-Japan World Cup qualifying round.Eventually, the knife was pulled out. He replaced manager Doribau Junior after a 1-4 defeat against Argentina in March.

He turned to Europe. In fact, Brazil has been in contact with European masters since the last Qatar World Cup. With Jose Mourinho, Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp on the list, Brazil's top priority was Ancelotti. Ancelotti is one of the best masters in the world, having won five European Champions League titles alone. Not a great tactician, but he is famous for being good at motivating and dramatizing the strengths of his players. Ancelotti is the only coach to win all five European leagues.

Initially, the smooth negotiations seemed to end with a penalty issue with Real Madrid and a large love call from Saudi Arabia, but Brazil eventually took Ancelotti's hand. Ancelotti, who said goodbye to Real Madrid, joined the Brazilian national team on the 26th and announced the first list.

Compared to March, as many as 13 people have changed. Alisson (Liverpool) and Bento (Al-Nasr) were named as goalkeepers, while Corinthians' Ugu Sousa was added. Four new faces joined the defense. Alex Sandru (Flamengo), Alexandru (Lil), Beraudu (PSG), and Carlos Augustu (Inter Milan) were chosen. Of these, Alexandru is the first choice. Danilu, Leu Orchis, Wesley (flamengue), Marquinoz (PSG), and Van der Sons (Monaco) were chosen unchanged.




There is a big change in Harijin. Four of the six were newly chosen. Andreas Pereira (Fullam), Andrei Santos (Strasbourg), Casemiro (Manchester United), and Ederson (Atalanta) have been selected by Ancelotti. Casemiro's return is notable. Casemiro worked with Ancelotti at Real Madrid. Among the existing players, only Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle) and Gerson (Flamengoo) were called again.

The offense also had a wide range of changes. Antony (Real Betis), Gabriel Martinelli (Arnall), Matheus Cunha (Wolverhampton), and Hishalisson (Tottenham) were selected. Esteban (Faumeiras), Hapinha (Barcelona), and Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid) were chosen as they were. Neymar was excluded.
