Dorival Jr. commented on Brazil’s preparations for the friendly and the Copa America
The Brazil team, which is preparing for the Copa America, completed its first round of training in the United States on Sunday night.
In the first days of work, coach Torival Jr. had 17 players – defender Gabriel Magalhas, recovering from a right shoulder injury, did not go on the field.
The next time they return to work, on Tuesday, the Seleção will have a large group, with four team members playing in Brazilian football and midfielder Ederson, who played for Atalanta this Sunday.
After four days of action in the US, the players will have a rest this Monday.
Dorival Jnr will only have his full squad next Wednesday with the Real Madrid trio who won the Champions League last Saturday: Eder Milito, Rodrigo and Vini Jnr.
Brazil play a friendly against Mexico on Saturday and face the USA on the 12th. The first match of the Copa America will take place on the 24th against Costa Rica.
