Brazil's national team returned home with only one player, Flamenqo defender Danilo Luis da Silva, after being eliminated from the 2026 World Cup.
Sport.Biz reports this according to "Folha de S.Paulo".
According to the source, all 26 Brazilian players were released immediately after losing 2-1 to Norway in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup. However, many players decided to fly to other countries. They will spend their vacations there or join their clubs for pre-season training later.
The head coach, Karlo Ançelotti, left for Canada, where his family's home is, the day after the team's defeat.
By losing to Norway in the 1/8 finals, Brazil showed its worst result in the 21st century World Cup.
