Brazil national team have named their squad for September friendlies and Arsenal trio Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Magalhaes were left out of the squad.
Tite's side are preparing to face Ghana and Tunisia on September 23 and September 27, respectively.
After the squad was announced, Brazil head coach spoke out on Jesus’ absence.
"Gabriel Jesus, specifically, is having a great time and in contention. Absolutely, yes," Tite said.
"These call-ups serve as opportunities for others. As well as others in this same context. Regarding the number of attackers. Football is creation and scoring, and defensive solidity. If you run away from these characteristics, you will lose.
"This balance point is very difficult in a team and we are looking for it. This number of attackers will not be determined. Athletes’ versatility is an important part."
