Brazil coach Tite said star striker Neymar made a mistake by getting involved in the altercation after PSG’s defeat in the Coupe de France final and said he would have a private conversation with the player when they next meet.

Tite announced a 23-man squad for the Copa America to be held on home soil starting next month and, as expected, Neymar was included despite his recent injury problems and French league suspension for an altercation with a fan.

“Neymar was wrong. For the sake of education, as Brazil coach and personally, I will have a chat with him, for the sake of education and principles.

“First, I will chat with him. The same way I had a chat with Douglas Costa and the same way I will have a chat with Lucas Paqueta, for the sake of conduct, for the sake of education.”

Ajax’s David Neres makes the squad but Tottenham’s Lucas Moura and Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr were left out.

The team will play two friendlies before the Copa America begins, facing Qatar on June 5 in Brasilia and Honduras four days later in Porto Alegre.

The Brazilians, who last won the continental title in 2007, will play in Group A with Bolivia, Peru and Venezuela.
