DHAKA: Barcelona’s Neymar and Bayern Munich's Douglas Costa have been selected as over-age players in Brazil's Rio 2016 Olympics squad.

The third permitted over-age player is Palmeiras goalkeeper Fernando Prass, BBC reports on Thursday (June 30).

Gabriel Barbosa, the teenage Santos striker who scored on his Brazil debut last month, is one of five forwards in the largely under-23 squad.

Under-20s coach Rogerio Micale will manage the side after Dunga's sacking following the Copa America.
