Neymar misses out as Endrick returns to Brazil squad

Santos' Neymar has not played for Brazil since October 2023 due to a serious knee injury but has played four games for his club since mid-February. The 34-year-old misses out on pre-World Cup friendlies against France on March 27 in Boston and Croatia four days later in Orlando. Brazil start their bid for a sixth World Cup title, but first since 2002, against Morocco in New Jersey on June 13, before also facing Haiti and Scotland in Group C. "I haven't called him up because he's not 100 percent," Ancelotti told reporters.
