Liverpool duo Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino have been named in the Brazil squad for next month’s World Cup qualifiers with Argentina and Peru.

New boss Tite has guided Brazil to the top of the South American qualifying section on the back of four straight wins and he has once again called up the Reds attackers as they look to take a step closer to the 2018 finals in Russia.

Coutinho and Firmino will fly to Brazil ahead of the crunch showdown with Argentina in Belo Horizonte on November 10.

They will then head to Peru for another qualifier in Lima on November 15.

Liverpool have been making special travel arrangements to ensure that Coutinho and Firmino get back to Merseyside as quickly as possible following international duty.

However, following a 6,000-mile flight both will face a race against time to be ready for Liverpool’s Premier League clash away to Southampton on Saturday, November 19.

They won’t report back to Melwood until the Thursday of that week – just 24 hours before Jurgen Klopp’s men make the journey south.

Coutinho started both matches as Brazil beat Bolivia and Venezuela earlier this month but Firmino was limited to just 15 minutes of action.
