Weverton replaces injured Alisson Becker in Brazil's squad for World Cup qualifiers against Chile and Peru.
RIO DE JANEIRO, Oct. 5 (Xinhua) -- Palmeiras goalkeeper Weverton was called up to Brazil's squad on Saturday for World Cup qualifiers against Chile and Peru.
Weverton has been capped 10 times for Brazil. The 36-year-old replaces Alisson Becker, who withdrew from the squad after suffering a hamstring tear in Liverpool's 1-0 victory at Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday.
Brazil will meet Chile in Santiago on October 10 and Peru in Brasilia five days later.
The five-time world champions are currently fifth in the South American qualifying group, having won just three of their first eight games. Chile and Peru are ninth and 10th, respectively. ■
