Juventud Antoniana Overview

The club continues to be a haven for young Brazilian players looking to launch their career in Europe despite the conflict with Russia - but how?

Carlo Ancelotti has officially drawn the curtain on Neymar’s illustrious but often turbulent international career, confirming that the Santos forward will not return to the Brazil fold. Following the Selecao's disappointing exit at the last World Cup, the Italian tactician is now pivoting toward an aggressive youth movement designed to reshape the five-time world champions.

Morgan Rogers and Cole Palmer are threatening to stunt Estevao’s development at Chelsea, with there no obvious starting berth for him to fill at present, but former Blues star Robert Huth has told GOAL why the Brazilian wonderkid can still thrive at Stamford Bridge. The exciting teenager was acquired to fill a role on the flanks, but Xabi Alonso is now playing without wingers.

PSV Eindhoven captain Mauro Junior is currently riding the crest of a wave after receiving his first-ever call-up to the Brazil national team. The versatile defender has been a standout performer in the Eredivisie, and his hard work has finally been rewarded by the Selecao coaching staff.
