He is a great talent and <strong>it is normal for people to think that he can help us win the next World Cup<\/strong>. He is currently being evaluated by the <strong>CBF<\/strong> and by me, and he still has two months to prove that he has the qualities to play in the next <strong>World Cup<\/strong>,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know if since the <strong>2022 World Cup<\/strong> he has been 100% physically, but <strong>he is capable of being so again<\/strong>. I have said it many times and it is very clear: <strong>I am going to call up players who are physically fit<\/strong>. After his knee injury, Neymar came back well and scored goals. <strong>He must continue like this and improve his condition. He is on the right track<\/strong>,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Now it all depends on <strong>Neymar<\/strong>, who will have to convince Ancelotti in the coming weeks that he is physically fit to be, at 34 years of age, in the final list. The Italian also confessed where he could fit in with the Canarinha, &#8220;<strong>more centrally, closer to the opponent&#8217;s goal, as he currently plays for Santos<\/strong>,&#8221; he explained<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ue-c-article__subheadline\">Happy with Endrick<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Ancelotti <\/strong>also assessed <strong>Endrick&#8217;s <\/strong>options after leaving <strong>Real Madrid<\/strong> in search of minutes at <strong>Lyon<\/strong> so as not to miss the boat for the <strong>World Cup<\/strong>, listening to the Italian&#8217;s advice. &#8220;Yes, I spoke to him on the phone before he was loaned to Lyon. <strong>It&#8217;s good what he&#8217;s doing there.
