Ancelotti Demands Full Fitness as Brazil Prepare for Another Title Chase
Carlo Ancelotti has said Brazil’s World Cup squad will prioritise players who are fully fit.
Brazil’s 2026 World Cup campaign will be shaped by Carlo Ancelotti’s strict selection policy. The Brazil coach has made clear that Vinícius Júnior must be fully fit to make the final squad, and the same standard applies to Neymar. Ancelotti said he wants only players who are 100% ready, reflecting the competition for places in Brazil’s attack. Vinícius Júnior remains one of Brazil’s most dangerous players and previously scored the decisive goal that secured qualification against Paraguay. Brazil’s group includes Morocco, Haiti and Scotland, with the Morocco match likely to be one of the group’s biggest tests.
Players to watch: Carlo Ancelotti, Vinícius Júnior, Neymar.
Group opponents: Morocco, Haiti, Scotland.
