Neymar Excluded from Brazil Squad for World Cup Qualifiers Against Colombia and Argentina

Brazilian football superstar Neymar will not feature in the national squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers due to a thigh injury.

Alongside Neymar, goalkeeper Éderson and defender Danilo have also been excluded. These absences mark a significant change for Brazil as they prepare for two crucial matches, including a highly anticipated clash against Argentina.

To address these gaps, the Brazilian Football Federation has called up Lyon goalkeeper Lucas Perri, Flamengo's experienced left-back Alex Sandro, and Real Madrid's prodigious forward Endrick. These players will step in to reinforce the team amidst the challenges posed by these key injuries.
