Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti has named Neymar in his 26-man squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, marking the 34-year-old forward's fourth appearance in the tournament.

Neymar made his World Cup debut in 2014 on home soil, won Olympic gold in 2016, and holds Brazil's men's scoring record with 79 goals. However, he has battled fitness issues since tearing his left ACL in October 2023.

Born at Santos, he won the 2011 Copa Libertadores before moving to Barcelona in 2013 and claiming the 2015 UEFA Champions League. In 2017, he transferred to Paris Saint-Germain for a world-record fee, then had a short stint in Saudi Arabia with Al-Hilal before returning to Santos.

Ancelotti's squad also includes Real Madrid forward Vinícius Júnior and Barcelona forward Raphinha.
