Ramires recalled to Brazil squad

Chelsea midfielder Ramires receives a call-up to the Brazil squad for next month's international friendlies against Australia and Portugal.

Chelsea midfielder Ramires has earned a recall to Luiz Felipe Scolari's Brazil squad for next month's international friendlies against Australia and Portugal.

The 26-year-old was left out of the Selecao contingent for this summer's Confederations Cup, with some reports suggesting that he had fallen out with the head coach.

However, Scolari said that he is prepared to wipe the slate clean and urged Ramires to prove his worth to the team.

"The player had a problem, we understood that and he will have a chance to be part of the group," Scolari told reporters. "He will have to show that, technically, he is good enough.

"We have created a healthy atmosphere here and we want to carry that on until the World Cup. The most important thing is the national team."

Ramires made his international debut in a World Cup qualifier with Uruguay in June 2009.
