Coach Tite will try to keep Brazil's good form when hosting the South American tournament with these 23 men.

Brazil has always won the Copa América title whenever they have had the chance of hosting it, and A Canarinha will try to do just that when they begin the competition on June 14.

With less than a month away from their debut against Bolivia, coach Tite revealed the list of players that will wear the legendary jersey this summer. With the amount of talented Brazilian players around the world, there would necessarily be some snubbed players, but coach Tite decided to leave two players out of the team that could have made a difference. Those players are Marcelo and Vinicius.

The Real Madrid duo was snubbed by Tite to cap a disappointing season. Marcelo has even been linked with a move away from Los Blancos due to his poor performances, while Vinicius has recently returned to the pitch after recovering from an ankle injury. Despite the wingman's return, coach Tite decided to snub the youngster.

Even with those absences, Brazil will present a solid squad to try and win their ninth title, and better yet, in front of their supporters. Here is Tite's 23-man list for the competition.

Goalkeepers: Alisson, Ederson, Cassio.

Defenders: Dani Alves, Thiago Silva, Miranda, Filipe Luis, Marquinhos, Alex Sandro, Fagner, Eder Militäo.

Midfielders: Fernandinho, Philippe Coutinho, Casemiro, Arthur, Lucas Paquetá, Allan.

Strikers: Neymar, Roberto Firmino, Gabriel Jesus, Richarlison, Everton, David Neres.

A Canarinha will have a couple of friendly games against Qatar (June 5) and Honduras (June 9) before their debut in the 2019 Copa América against Bolivia, a match scheduled to be played on June 14.
