From Arthur Dias to Mauro Jr: who are the lesser-known players in Ancelotti's first call-up after the World Cup?

Carlo Ancelotti made this Wednesday his first call-up for the Brazilian national team after the World Cup in Qatar. The Italian coach's list brought major renewal to the group, with notable young players and lesser-known names by the Brazilian public.

Among the new call-ups is Arthur Dias, a 19-year-old defender from the Athletico-PR youth academy. The young defender made his professional debut in August last year and this season has accumulated 30 games wearing the Hurricane shirt.

Arthur Dias is accustomed to wearing the yellow jersey, having been called up for the national team's youth categories since under-17. He has been one of the leaders of the under-20 team and participated in the conquest of the last South American Championship in that category.

In addition to Arthur Dias, Ancelotti's call-up featured other lesser-known players, such as Mauro Jr., who are also part of the renewal the Italian coach intends for the Brazilian national team.

The Brazilian, who scored a goal in the match, refused to comment on the subject, stating that he only talks about Barcelona. His absence from the list of 30 finalists was considered one of the biggest surprises of the award. Raphinha had excellent performance in the 2025/26 season, with 21 goals and seven assists in 33 games, being one of the main reasons for the La Liga title. Only three Brazilians appeared among the finalists: Gabriel Magalhães, Marquinhos and Vini Jr.
