Luiz Henrique

Luiz Henrique is a confirmed forward in Brazil's 26-man squad for the 2026 World Cup, named by Carlo Ancelotti on 18 May 2026 and listed in the forward group alongside Neymar, Vinícius Júnior, Raphinha, Gabriel Martinelli, Matheus Cunha, Endrick, Igor Thiago and Rayan. The Zenit Saint Petersburg winger is 25 at kick-off and brings 13 senior Brazil caps and two international goals into the squad, with 2026 set to be his first senior World Cup if he stays in the final 26 at kick-off.

Brazil face Morocco, Haiti and Scotland in Group C, with the opener against Morocco at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford on 13 June. Ancelotti's side qualified through the CONMEBOL campaign, reaching the finals on 10 June 2025, and Luiz Henrique is listed among the forwards as a direct right winger who can also play on the left.

Luiz Henrique is a direct right winger who cuts inside from the right onto his left foot, running at defenders and looking to create and score from wide areas. He can also switch to the left wing, stretching play and getting into the box from either flank.

His two international goals point to a wide forward who carries a goal threat as well as a creative one. With 13 caps so far, he is an attacking option Ancelotti can call on in the forward line.

Brazil are a Tier 1 pick on the Goal Rush card at £32m within the game's £200m card budget, the premium top-band slot rather than a mid- or lower-tier call. The Group C draw against Morocco, Haiti and Scotland sets the early fixture context, with Carlo Ancelotti's confirmed 4-3-3 and a group-stage draw against lower-tier opponents giving the team slot its main Goal Rush angle.

Luiz Henrique is part of the Brazil team card at that £32m slot in the forward group.
