The second international break of the 2026/27 season is just around the corner and Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti has now announced the squad list of players who he will be taking on a tour of Asia for their upcoming games.
The Selecao are scheduled to play a friendly against Japan on 14 November, before facing Singapore three days later on 17 November.
And, the Italian mastermind has called up two Real Madrid stars, Vinicius Jr. and Endrick, to the squad for the two fixtures.
Vinicius is a permanent fixture in the Brazil setup under Ancelotti and is considered one of the most important cogs.
The 26-year-old featured in all three of the South American nation’s friendly encounters in the last international break, scoring one goal in the process.
As for Endrick, the 20-year-old striker is trying to establish himself in the national team setup, with Ancelotti continuing to grant him opportunities to make an impression.
Like with Vinicius, Endrick also played in all three of Brazil’s matches in the previous break, registering one assist.
Both the Real Madrid stars will once again embark on a trip that will seem them travel around 11,000 km for the two matches.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid defender Eder Militao has not been called up by Ancelotti, with the Brazilian defender only recently recovering from a long-term injury. Rodrygo remains unavailable as he continues his rehabilitation from an ACL rupture.
