Brazilian football legend Romario sent a message to the country's men's national team coach Carlo Ancelotti.

According to the former forward, the Italian must not make a crucial mistake when selecting players for the upcoming World Cup.

"We will only have a chance to become champions if C. Ancelotti includes Neymar in the squad,” Romario clarified.

Recently, the controversial star has not been shining in his homeland's championship.

This year, he scored 3 goals in 14 matches and has yet to receive attention from C. Ancelotti.

Five-time world champions Brazil last contested the title in 2002.
