eBrazil will have the return of the striker Gabriel Jesus to face Argentina on Tuesday at the Maracaná stadium in Rio de Janeiro at South American Qualifiersas rehearsed this Saturday at its sports center, Granja Comary.
The Arsenal footballer from England, who has not played since October 24, was not part of the delegation that traveled to Colombia due to a muscle injury from which he has fully recovered.
His return to the team – he was present in the four previous matches of the 2026 World Cup qualification – will occur in place of Vinicius Júnior, from Real Madrid, ruled out due to a tear he suffered in Barranquilla, last Thursday.
Gabriel Jesús, a 26-year-old from São Paulo, has accumulated 63 games in the “Canarinha” with a balance of 19 goals. One of them was converted to the National Team in the 2-0 victory in the semifinals of the Copa América Brazil 2019.
The second variant that coach Fernando Diniz tried was the inclusion of Charles Augustusa full-back with more defensive characteristics, by former Atlético de Madrid Renán Lodi.
The formation of Brazil to receive the world champion team will be with Alisson, Emerson Royal, Marquinhos, Gabriel Magalhaes and Carlos Augusto; André and Bruno Guimaraes; Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesús, Rodrygo and Raphiha.
Argentina will appear at the Maracaná as the leader of the South American Qualifiers with 12 points, despite losing its undefeated record on Thursday with the home defeat against Uruguay.
Brazil, fifth with seven points, has two losses in a row against Uruguay and Colombia, both as visitors.
