On May 18 UK time, Brazil officially unveiled its final roster for the 2026 FIFA World Cup held in the USA, Canada and Mexico. The 34-year-old star Neymar made the cut and is ready to embark on his fourth World Cup journey.

Having bounced back from injury setbacks, Neymar will team up with young talented players of Brazil. The squad will strive fiercely to claim the nation’s sixth World Cup trophy and carry forward the glorious legacy of Brazilian football.
