Carlo Ancelotti has promised to “bring about a new generation” in the Brazil national team, simultaneously ending the international careers of Neymar, Casemiro and Danilo.
Neymar and Danilo had already spoken about stepping away from Seleção selection immediately after Brazil lost to Norway in the World Cup round of 16 earlier this month. But Casemiro, who was welcomed back in from the cold by Ancelotti midway through 2025 after 18 months out of favor, had not spoken publicly on the matter.
