Brazil make decision on Joelinton and Bruno Guimaraes | OneFootball

Ahead of the final Newcastle United home match of the season against Brighton, Brazil have revealed their Joelinton and Bruno Guimaraes decisions for this summer.

The Copa America (kind of the equivalent of the European Championships) takes place this summer.

Brazil now having named their squad for the tournament.

Bruno Guimaraes is in the 23 man squad but no Joelinton.

Dorival Junior became the new Brazil boss in January and so maybe a case of having different ideas on selection, or possibly the Joelinton omission due to his injury issues this season and so giving him the chance of a summer to prepare for next season.

Bruno Guimaraes and the rest of this Brazil squad will have Copa America warm-up games against Mexico on 8 June and up against the USA on 12 June.

Then once the Copa America kicks off, Brazil play group games against:

Costa Rica – 24 June

Paraguay – 28 June

Colombia – 2 July
