Brazil manager Alexandre Gallo has named his squad for the upcoming U-20 World Cup in New Zealand.
Gallo has named an original squad of 26 players but will cut them down to 21 after the 11th day of training at Atibaia, São Paulo.
The tournament starts on the 30th May and Brazil’s first match is against Nigeria on the 1st of June.
Gallo will want to emulate the 2011 Brazilian team who won the tournament. He has already gone one better than the team in 2013 who failed to even reach the finals.
