Brazilian media globo reported that Brazilian internationals Guimarães and Joelinton, who played for Newcastle United, encountered setbacks on their way to Seoul, South Korea to join the national team.

They were originally scheduled to arrive on Tuesday, but due to a window of the plane suddenly breaking during the flight, the flight was forced to turn back midway, and finally returned to Amsterdam, the place of departure. The accident caused the two to waste 12 hours of flight time.

This delay disrupted the Brazilian team's preparation plan, and head coach Carlo Ancelotti has not been able to gather all 25 players. The Brazilian Football Federation is urgently re-planning the itinerary for the two, who may need to take different flights to arrive in South Korea on Wednesday.

According to the latest arrangement, Joelinton is not expected to be able to catch the team training on Wednesday afternoon, and the Brazilian Football Association is working hard to find a faster route for Guimarães to transfer via other European countries so that he can return to the team as soon as possible.
