Overview

• Brazil confirmed a 23-man list for the last two qualifiers, hosting Chile on 4 September at the Maracanã before visiting Bolivia on 9 September in El Alto.
• Neymar was omitted due to a leg edema and is under treatment, with Ancelotti stressing he will only return when fully fit.
• Vinícius Júnior misses the Chile match through suspension and was not selected for the window, and Rodrygo was left out as a coach’s choice given familiarity with his game.
• The call-ups emphasize fresh looks, including a first selection for Kaio Jorge and the return of Lucas Paquetá, alongside names such as João Pedro and Estêvão.
• Ancelotti framed the window as an assessment phase after qualification was clinched in June, with further evaluations planned in October friendlies against Japan and South Korea.
