Brazil are considered among the favourites to lift the World Cup, in part due to their frightening attacking core featuring Neymar, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo.
Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes and Liverpool’s Roberto Firmino were some of the stars who missed out on a place as the start of the tournament draws ever closer.
Brazil kick off their World Cup campaign against Serbia on November 24th, with Switzerland and Cameroon the other sides in Group G.
