Brazil are among the favorites to battle for Copa America glory in the USA this summer, following major changes for the Samba Boys.
Tite's departure after the 2022 FIFA World Cup triggered a chain of coach swapping, with the Brazilian FA appointing and sacking two interim head coaches, before eventually bringing in Dorival Junior at the start of 2024.
However, the changes are not just limited to the coaches bench, with the new boss sweeping through a controversial squad overhaul, and some high-profile stars have missed the roster cut for the tournament.
The Sporting News looks at the key details for Brazil's schedule at the tournament, including how to watch their matches across the world, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.
