Rodrygo hits career rock bottom

Coach Carlo Ancelotti did not call up Rodrygo for Brazil's matches in September, marking a series of unforgettable days in the samba striker's career.

Rodrygo is facing huge pressure as the 2025/26 season kicks off.

Globo revealed that coach Carlo Ancelotti has left Rodrygo Goes out of the Brazil squad for the September international break. This decision shows the "Don Carlo"'s tough personnel strategy, with the ambition to improve the performance of the "Selecao".

At the same time, it also raises questions about Rodrygo's future in the national team, when the 2026 World Cup starts next summer. The reason for Rodrygo's exclusion lies in the player's inconsistent form, while his lack of playing time at Real Madrid is also another reason.

It should be noted that Rodrygo was also absent from Ancelotti’s first Brazil squad in May 2025. Without Rodrygo, many unfamiliar faces will be on the Brazilian squad in September.

The Italian coach is actively renewing the "Selecao" squad for the final stage of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in September. A series of little-known names such as Kaio Jorge (Cruzeiro), Fabrício Bruno (Cruzeiro), Paulo Henrique (Vasco), Marcos Antônio (Sao Paulo) or Vitinho (Botafogo) will have the opportunity to be called up to the national team in the call-up next month.

In June, Brazil secured a ticket to the 2026 World Cup thanks to a thrilling 1-0 victory over Paraguay. Despite securing a ticket to the 2026 World Cup, Brazil's performance was not really convincing. Coach Ancelotti's team has lacked vitality in recent times.

That is why the former Real Madrid coach wants to refresh the squad, adding many factors that can make a difference. In addition to new faces, the September call-up of the Brazilian team will also welcome the return of veterans such as Alex Telles, Éder Militão, and Neymar.
