“As part of our plan to face different schools of football, we wanted to take on two distinct teams from the African continent,” Brazil’s national team coordinator Rodrigo Caetano said.

“Senegal is a traditional team, having just secured a spot in the World Cup. They play a very strong and skillful style of football. Tunisia, on the other hand, represents the Mediterranean African school, with lighter and faster teams. They are two strong teams that will demand a lot from our team.”

Brazil faced Asian sides in the October international window, beating South Korea 5-0 before suffering their first ever defeat to Japan.

The CBF confirmed that the plan is for Brazil to take on European teams in the March 2026 window but have not given any further information.
