The Brazil 2026 World Cup squad finalized by Carlo Ancelotti includes Neymar as attacker, Vinícius Júnior as attacker, and Raphinha as attacker up front; goalkeepers include Alisson, Ederson, and Weverton contending for spots. A back line features Marquinhos, Danilo, Alex Sandro, and Gabriel Magalhães in defense. Midfielders include Bruno Guimarães, Fabinho, and Danilo Santos as central players. The 26-man list was officially submitted in late May, with Neymar returning at age 34 after previous injuries returning from injuries. Several notable omissions were noted, including Joao Pedro, Richarlison, Savinho, Gabriel Jesus, Andrey Santos, and Thiago Silva left out. Some sources highlight Brazil as having one of the strongest squads and a real World Cup bid to win again.
