Brazil unveils squad for upcoming friendlies with PSG's Lucas Beraldo in debut call-up

As the next international break approaches, Brazil has unveiled its list of 26 summoned players. In his debut call-up, Dorival Junior relies on Marquinhos as a key figure, while also granting newly arrived PSG player, Lucas Beraldo, his inaugural call-up.

Arriving at PSG during the winter transfer window, Lucas Beraldo has been thrust onto the main stage earlier than anticipated under the Parisian skies. Indeed, with the challenging returns from injuries of Presnel Kimpembe and Nuno Mendes, alongside Milan Skriniar's setback, the only winter addition for the Rouge & Bleu has assumed a starting role in recent weeks.

This meteoric rise continues for Lucas Beraldo on Friday, March 1st, a date that will be etched in his personal history. Just as he takes on responsibilities with the Selecao, Dorival Junior has chosen to summon PSG's number 35. Additionally, Marquinhos, despite his current injury, also features in the list for defense.

PSG's Lucas Beraldo named in Brazil squad for England and Spain friendlies

On the occasion of the international break at the end of March, Brazil will face England and Spain in friendly matches on March 23rd and 26th, respectively.

The inclusion of Lucas Beraldo in Brazil's squad underscores the rapid adaptation and impact he has made since joining PSG. His swift integration into the team speaks volumes about his talent and adaptability, especially considering the challenging circumstances surrounding PSG's defensive lineup.

With Dorival Junior's faith in him, Beraldo has the opportunity to showcase his skills on the international stage, further solidifying his position as a rising star in Brazilian football.
