The new head coach of Brazil, Carlo Ancelotti, has released his first squad list since he took the job.
Ancelotti has left out notable names like Neymar Jr, Rodrygo, Ederson and Joelinton.
The Selecao announced their first squad under the Italian for their World Cup qualifiers against Ecuador and Paraguay.
Neymar has been excluded as he continues to struggle with form and injuries.
But Ancelotti has insisted that that the Santos forward remains a key part of his plans.
Speaking to reporters, he said: “Neymar’s out of the list as he’s just returned from injury. I spoke to Ney and we’ve agreed on this.
“I trust Neymar, I count on him, we want him to arrive in the best conditions to the World Cup.
