On the 5th (Korea time), the Brazilian Football Association officially announced on its official channel that `Ederson was injured during training'`Nottingham Forest goalkeeper John Victor has been replaced`. This is Viktor's first time on the national team. Victor, who boasts a height of 1m97, moved to Nottingham this summer after playing for Santos, Internacional and Botafogo. I haven't made my debut yet.
Brazil's goalkeepers are shaking. Alisson Pecker (Liverpool) was already ruled out due to injury, and Ederson was also left out. Ederson has been disappointed even after Fenerbahce's transfer, but he was likely to be the No. 1 player in the national team. With Ederson's exclusion, Bento, who shares a tie with Cristiano Ronaldo in Al Nasr, is likely to be the main player.
Brazil's A national soccer team, led by head coach Carlo Ancelotti, unveiled a list of 26 players to play in the A match in October on the 2nd. Brazil will play South Korea in Seoul on the 10th and Japan in Tokyo on the 14th. Brazil ranked fifth in the South American qualifying round, confirming its advance to the 2026 North American World Cup. Brazil has made the greatest effort of advancing to the finals for 23 consecutive times since the first tournament.
Brazil is trying to win the North-China American competition and will start the North-China American Project in Far East Asia. Ancelotti had the best members. The team's ransom is 985 million euros, more than seven times that of Korea (134 million euros, about 220.5 billion won), and about 1.612 trillion won (based on Transmarkt). Starting with Vinicius Junior, one of the world's best strikers, Hodrigo (Real Madrid), Hishalisson, Esteban (Chelsea), Gabriel Martinelli (Arnall), Igor Jejues (Nottingham), Luis Enhiki (Zenit), and Matheus Cunya (Manchester United) were on the offensive.
Attention is drawn to former teammate Heesalisson (Tottenham) of Son Heung-min (LAFC). Until just recently, Hishalisson shared a meal with Son Heung-min at Tottenham. Immediately after Son Heung-min's farewell match at Tottenham, Hishalisson posted on his SNS, 'If there was no Sonny in the locker room, it would be strange. He was a good friend, a leader, and an example of a good professional. It was an honor to have been together, and we will surely meet again one day. It became a reality in two months. Hishalisson is playing as Tottenham's ace after Son Heung-min left. He has scored three goals in 10 games.
Veteran striker Neymar (Santus) was not included in the list. Neymar enjoyed a trip to Korea during his visit to Korea in June 2022, and was cheered by many domestic fans. He returned to Brazil from Al Hilal (Saudi Arabia), but he has not been able to perform properly due to frequent injuries. Hafinha (Barcelona), who is ranked fifth in the Ballon d'Or, is also out due to injury.
Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle), Casemiro (Manchester United), João Gomis, Andre (Wolverhampton), Joelington (Newcastle) and Lucas Paqueta (West Ham) were chosen in the midfield. Kaio Enhiki, Van der Song (AS Monaco), Carlos Augustu (Inter Milan), Douglas Santos (Gennit), Eder Militão (Real Madrid), Fabrizio Bruno (Cruzeiro), Gabriel Magalyangis (Arnall), Lucas Beraudu (PSG) and Wesley (AS Roma) were selected for the defense. Ugu Sousa (Corintians) was listed as the goalkeeper along with Victor and Bento.
