Carlo Ancelotti has called three Serie A players for Brazil's friendly matches against Japan and Singapore, Inter's Carlos Augusto, Roma winger Wesley and Torino goalkeeper Lucas Perri. The Italian coach is naturally keeping a close eye on Serie A football to identify form players for his Seleçao.

Brazil are set to play a couple of friendly matches during the November break for international duty. They will be up against Japan on November 14, then Singapore in a lucrative opportunity on November 17.

Roma winger Wesley is also able to cover either flank, but in a more exclusively attacking role. Torino goalkeeper Perri arrived over the summer from Leeds United, on loan with option to buy at the end of the season for €16m.

Defeners: Arthur Dias (Athletico-PR), Carlos Augusto (Inter de Milán), Douglas Santos (Zenit), Gabriel Magalhães (Arsenal), Jair Cunha (Nottingham Forest), Jonathan Jesus (Cruzeiro), Vanderson (Monaco), Vitor Reis (Manchester City), Wesley (Roma). Midfielders: André Luiz (Corinthians), Andrey Santos (Manchester United), Bruno Guimarães (Arsenal), Danilo (Botafogo), Gabriel Bontempo (Santos), João Gomes (Aston Villa), Marlon Gomes (Shakhtar Donetsk).

Forwards: Alisson Santana (Shakhtar Donetsk), Allan (Manchester City), Endrick (Real Madrid), Estêvão (Chelsea), Raphinha (Barcelona), Rayan (Bournemouth), Vinicius Jr (Real Madrid).
