Rio De Janeiro: Uncapped teenager Estevao has been included in Brazil's squad for FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Ecuador and Paraguay, the South American country's football confederation said on Friday.

The 17-year-old, who will join Chelsea next July, has made a positive impression for Palmeiras with five goals and five assists in 19 Brazilian Serie A games this year, Xinhua news agency reported.

As expected, manager Dorival Junior named three Real Madrid forwards - Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Endrick - in his 23-man squad.
