Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, the technical director of the Brazil national team for the 2026 World Cup, expressed great confidence in the players called up to participate in the anticipated football event. The “Seleção” begins its journey in the tournament within Group C, which includes Morocco, Scotland, and Haiti alongside them.
After announcing the final World Cup squad, Ancelotti stated, “I’m not a magician, but I am someone who has worked in this world for 40 years. I have the knowledge and confidence that this team is capable of competing with the best in the world.”
The seasoned coach’s statements affirm the good preparation and great ambition driving the Brazil national team in this tournament.
He concluded by affirming, “Yes, we can reach the World Cup final, but I don’t know if that is enough. The best is to reach the final and win it.”
These remarks show Ancelotti’s desire to achieve the most coveted title, not just to reach the final match.
The final Brazil squad for the 2026 World Cup included Santos player Neymar da Silva, while prominent names such as Chelsea player João Pedro and his injured teammate Estêvão were absent.
Brazilian football fans hope that this lineup will fulfill their hopes and lift the World Cup trophy.
