Shakhtar Donetsk sporting director Darijo Srna has expressed his gratitude to Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti after midfielder Marlon Gomes and winger Alisson Santana earned their maiden senior international call-ups. The young duo are the first players from the Ukrainian club to be selected by the South American giants in eight years.
Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker remains his undisputed first choice despite being left out of November's friendlies. Ancelotti emphasized that the upcoming matches serve purely to test younger stoppers.
