The head coach of the Brazil national team, Carlo Ancelotti, commented on the future of striker Neymar in the national team.
Carlo Ancelotti (photo: gettyimages.com)— There’s no point in watching Neymar play — everyone already knows how talented he is. In modern football, to realize that talent, you need to be in great physical shape. If he achieves optimal fitness, he will easily fit into the team. Everyone wants to see Neymar in the squad when he is in good physical condition. I told him: you have time to recover and help the team show its best at the World Cup. The approach remains the same, — Ancelotti quotes ESPN.
The Brazilian national team has already secured its place in the 2026 World Cup. In the September qualifying matches, the team defeated Chile (3:0) but lost to Bolivia (0:1). The 33-year-old Neymar has played 128 matches for the national team, scoring 79 goals.
