Ancelotti warns Vinicius before the World Cup

Italian Carlo Ancelotti warned Vinicius Junior that he might not be included in the Brazil national team’s roster for the 2026 World Cup finals if he is not 100% ready.
The Brazilian national team coach confirmed in an interview with the “Esporte Record” program that Vinicius Junior must be 100% ready in order to join the World Cup squad.
He stated that if Vinicius is 90% ready, he will call another player who is 100% ready, as this team has a very high level of competitiveness, especially in attack, with the presence of many excellent players in this position.
Last October, Ancelotti sent a similar warning to Neymar, saying that the Santos striker must be fully ready in order to be called up to the national team.
It is noteworthy that Brazil will play a friendly match against France in Boston during the international break between March 23 and 31.
