BARCELONA (Reuters) - Brazil's older players will have to step up to lead the team as they continue without a full time manager, defender Danilo said on Friday.

The Brazilian FA (CBF) are still pursuing Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti to be their new coach. The role has been vacant since the resignation of Tite following their quarter-final exit at the 2022 World Cup in December.
