The exact injury to the 32-year-old is unknown, but head coach Dorival Junior revealed the Man United man was not available.

"We have just received a report from Dr. Rodrigo Lasmar," the Brazil manager said.

"From a pre-list made by the Brazilian National Team's technical committee with 50 names, 13 of them were already away due to injury at their clubs. Unfortunately, we also lost Casemiro.

"Therefore, Pepe, from Porto, a native striker who now plays as a midfielder, is called up."
