Kolkata, Sept. 10 -- Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti has outlined his plans for the national team as they begin a new cycle with the 2030 FIFA World Cup in focus, with the Italian keen to make full use of the available FIFA international windows to build a strong and cohesive collective.

Ancelotti believes the squad must maintain a balance between players who have featured in previous campaigns and newcomers who can form the core of the team in the years ahead, according to a press release from AIFF.

"We have to make a balanced list, with players who played in the last campaign and young players who can bring new energy to the team. The idea is to build something for the future without losing our competitiveness," said Ancelotti.
