Under the guidance of coach Guilherme Dalla Déa, former coach of Corinthians' Under-17, the Under-15 National Team gathered from August 10 to 20. During this period, Brazil played two friendly matches: besides the victory over Fluminense, they defeated Vasco da Gama's Under-16 by 5-1, a match in which Léo Rodrigues scored.

The young attacking midfielder now awaits the announcement of the final list of 20 players, which will be released by early September. This selection will determine Brazil's representatives in the Conmebol Liga Evolução, an inaugural competition to be held in Paraguay, between the end of September and the beginning of October, bringing together ten South American teams in this category.

Considered one of the main talents of his generation, Léo Rodrigues has been standing out alongside right-back Nagashima and forwards Miguel Moscardo and Pedro Morelli. In the current season, Corinthians' Under-15 has already won three important titles: Copa Votorantim, Mina Cup, and Paulista Cup. Currently, the team is competing in the Paulista Championship for the category.
