Brazil’s National Team Welcomes New Forwards Vini Jr and Endrick for Final International Window
Body:
Brazil’s national team squad is close to finalizing its lineup for the last international window of the season. On Monday, September 9, forwards Vini Jr and Endrick arrived in Singapore, receiving an enthusiastic welcome from local fans.
The players expressed their gratitude by signing autographs and taking photos with supporters before participating in the initial training sessions under the direction of coach Carlo Ancelotti. Vini Jr joined the team after completing commercial obligations for Real Madrid in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. He traveled directly to Asia from Greece, following his participation in a Champions League match against AEK, and was suspended for the team’s 3-0 victory over Valencia.
With both forwards now part of the training, Ancelotti conducted the first session in Singapore, although the roster remained incomplete with only 12 players present. Those who had played for their clubs over the weekend, including Bruno Guimarães, Gabriel Magalhães, Jair, and Wesley, were given rest and focused solely on recovery exercises.
With the squad still not fully assembled, the Italian manager concentrated on finishing drills and small-sided games during practice. All training activities are occurring at Jalan Besar Stadium, which is set to host two friendly matches marking the conclusion of Brazil’s 2026 schedule.
The national team will take on Japan next Saturday, September 14, at 7:15 a.m. Brasília time, before wrapping up the international window against the hosts Singapore on Tuesday, September 17, at 7 a.m.
