Former PSG and Barcelona right-back Dani Alves who is currently contracted to UNAM in Mexico will set a new record in the 2022 World Cup, which Qatar will host from November 20 to December 18, in 8 different stadiums. At the age of 39, Alves will be one of the oldest players at Qatar 2022, as Brazil announced their 26-man party on Monday, 12 days before they face Serbia in their opening game in Qatar. The global network "ESPN" reported that the 39-year-old Dani Alves will become the oldest Brazilian player at a World Cup in its history, surpassing the previous record of Djalma Santos at the age of 37 in the 1966 edition, which was held in England.

Brazil is the most successful national team in the FIFA World Cup, being crowned winner five times: 1958, 1962, 1970, 1994, and 2002.
