Caio Henrique and Vanderson are called up (again) with Brazil

The two Monegasque full-backs, already called up with the Seleção during the international break in September, will join the national team again in October for two qualifying matches for the 2026 World Cup.

Uma vez mais! AS Monaco regulars and starters during the first six rounds of Ligue 1 this season, the two Brazilian wingbacks Caio Henrique and Vanderson have also had the honor to represent their country. Already called up by Fernando Diniz for the September matches, the two teammates have been called up again.

A big match ahead against Uruguay

Brazil has recently announced the list of 23 players expected to join the Seleção to play two matches in 2026 World Cup Qualifying next month. The Auriverde will take on Venezuela on Friday October 13, before playing a big match against Marcelo Bielsa’s Uruguay on Wednesday the 18th. It’s an opportunity perhaps for Caio “Caviar” Henrique to make his second appearance, having worn the yellow and green jersey for the first time against Bolivia two weeks ago.

A back to back!

Already called up in June and then again in September with his friend and teammate from the Principality, Vandi’ will fly off for his third call-up already with Brazil. It’s a very nice reward for the Monegasque number 2 and the second-best AS Monaco player in assists in Ligue 1 (25 assists). Daghe gars! 🇧🇷

📅 What’s ahead for the Seleção:

2026 World Cup Qualifying: Brazil – Venezuela, Friday October 13 in Cuiabá (2:30)
2026 World Cup Qualifying: Uruguay – Brazil , Wednesday, October 18 in Montevideo (2:00)
