Arsenal’s Gilberto Silva to play
Palmeiras striker Marcos, however, will get an opportunity during the tournament, and midfielder Emerson will make way in at least one match for Arsenal’s Gilberto Silva.
Silva was in Brazil’s 2002 World Cup-winning side but has since failed to clinch a regular place.
Brazil manager Runco, on Gilberto, said:
“The players coming from European clubs tend, at the end of the season, to have muscle pains. Those who play in Brazil aren’t so bad”.
