From the source

Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti has called up Barcelona captain Raphinha to his squad for the next round of international fixtures in November. Ancelotti’s men are heading to the Far East for games against Japan and Singapore which will see Raphinha and his team-mates once again rack up plenty of air miles at an important stage of the season.

Raphinha’s call-up is no surprise but is unlikely to be welcomed at Barcelona after the Brazilian returned early from the last round of fixtures with an injury.

The forward ended up missing games against Getafe and Galatasaray due to the problem and is yet to complete 90 minutes for Flick’s side since making his return.
