The Selecao will face Argentina in the Superclasico de las Americas in Beijing on October 11 before meeting Japan in Singapore October 14. Dunga, who was coach between 2006 and 2010, returned to the position to succeed Luiz Felipe Scolari following Brazil’s semi-final exit at this year’s World Cup. He kicked off his second stint in charge this past week with consecutive 1-0 victories over Colombia in Miami and Ecuador in New Jersey. His first squad since his appointment included just 10 of the 23 that contested the World Cup with Scolari. Atletico Mineiro’s Diego Tardelli was been drafted in as a false no.9 as Dunga attempts to introduce a more contemporary system akin to those used by Barcelona, Spain and Germany. Neymar was named the team’s captain by Dunga, but it is as yet unclear whether he retain the armband once Thiago Silva makes his expected return to the squad from injury. Dunga will announce his squad at 11am local time at the CBF headquarters in Rio de Janeiro.
