World Cup 2026: Brazil coach, Carlo Ancelotti announces squad for tournament [Full list]

 

Head coach of the Brazil national team, Carlo Ancelotti, has revealed his squad for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Under Ancelotti’s guidance, the Seleção is set to enter the tournament as one of the leading contenders once again.

This will mark the legendary Italian manager’s debut in a World Cup, and he bears the significant responsibility of restoring Brazil to the pinnacle of international football, a feat not achieved since they last lifted the trophy in Korea-Japan 2002, over twenty years ago.

With prominent players like Vinicius Jr., Raphinha and Bruno Guimarães, and uncertainties regarding Neymar’s fitness, Brazil aspires to secure its sixth World Cup title.
