Brazil head coach Tite announced his 23-member provisional squad with injured Neymar making it to the list with Man City’s trio Ederson, Gabriel Jesus and Danilo replacing Dani Alves who was ruled out after picking up a serious knee injury in Paris Saint-Germain's Coupe de France final victory against Les Hebiers.

While Dani Alves will be missed, the news of Neymar making it to the squad is a sign of relief for the Selecaos with the team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar confirming that the PSG star will be fit to play on June 3 in a friendly against Croatia.
