Overview

• The third call-up under Carlo Ancelotti will be unveiled at 15:00 Brasília time at CBF headquarters with live coverage on CBF TV’s YouTube channel.
• Brazil faces South Korea in Seoul on Oct. 10 at 08:00 Brasília and Japan in Tokyo on Oct. 14 at 07:30, with the latter tied to the traditional Kirin Cup.
• Coaching staff planning points to a list weighted toward Europe- and Asia-based players to reduce time-zone impact for the October friendlies.
• At least four previously called players are expected to be unavailable through injury, with Neymar already ruled out until November and reports indicating likely absences for Marquinhos, Gerson and Raphinha; Liverpool’s Alisson is now a doubt after a knock cited by Arne Slot.
• Reports tip potential new or returning names such as Éder Militão, Rodrygo, Igor Jesus and Joelinton, as Ancelotti frames this window as a testing phase with Brazil already qualified for the 2026 World Cup.
