Brazil Lose Another Right-Back as Wesley Ruled Out

Brazil have been dealt a significant defensive setback ahead of their World Cup campaign, according to beIN Sports. Right-back Wesley has picked up an injury and been ruled out of the tournament, forcing the Brazilian federation to name a replacement.

The news adds to the injury concerns surrounding Ancelotti's squad after an already unsettled build-up period. Losing an established defensive option so close to the tournament will test the coaching staff's planning.

Brazil will need to turn to their replacement quickly to bed him into the squad ahead of their Group C fixtures.
