On Thursday (11/13), coach Arthur Elias announced the call-up of the players to the Brazilian women’s national team. The menu maintains the rule played in recent friendlies, but brings some new features regarding previous calls. The invitation this time will be for friendly matches on the next FIFA date. The matches will be against Norway, and will be held in Spain and Portugal on 11/28 and 12/2.
Goalkeepers Thaís and Lelê, defender Fê Palermo, midfielders Brena and Yaya, as well as strikers Gabi Zanotti and Gabi Portilho, emerge as major new additions to the roster in connection with the latest call-up.
The goalkeepers include Lorena (Kansas), Claudia (Fluminense), Thies (Benfica) and Lele (Corinthians).
In defence, Arthur Elias has bet on a variety, with athletes playing in major European clubs, such as Tarsi (Lyon), Yasmin (Real Madrid), and Isabella (Paris Saint-Germain), as well as well-known names on the Brazilian scene, such as Mariza and Thaïs Ferreira, both from Corinthians, and in Palermo, from Palmeiras.
In the midfield, the coach maintained the backbone with Angelina (Orlando Pride), Doda Sampaio (Corinthians), and Ary Borges (Racing Louisville). Brenna (Palmereis) and Vava (Paris Saint-Germain) also feature in the list, strengthening the balance between youth and experience.
The attacking sector has big names and international fame. Pia Zanerato (Kansas), Ludmila (Chicago) and Gabi Zanotti (Corinthians) remain technical references, while Luani (Atletico Madrid, Spain) and Dudinha (San Diego) represent the new generation. The list also includes Gabi Portelho (Gotham) and Tina Maranhão (Palmiras), who are enjoying a good moment in national football.
