The 2021-2022 Ligue 1 season will come to a conclusion on May 21, when Paris Saint-Germain will finish its league campaign with a home fixture against Metz. But for Neymar and Marquinhos, they will be back in action mere weeks later.

The Brazilian national team unveiled on Wednesday the players who have earned call-ups for its upcoming international friendly fixtures in June. The Selecao is slated to face both South Korea (June 2) and Japan (June 6) coupled with a third opponent still yet to be announced.

Both Neymar and Marquinhos were among the talents who were called up by manager Tite for next month’s matches.

It remains to be seen on the third team that will round out Brazil’s friendly schedule next month.
