Paris Saint-Germain defender Marquinhos and Tottenham forward Richarlison will miss Brazil's friendly against Morocco next week due to injury, the South American country's football confederation said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Marquinhos was ruled out with an abdominal strain while Richarlison suffered a suspected right leg injury, a Xinhua report said on Sunday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Interim Brazil head coach Ramon Menezes has not yet named replacements for the pair, according to a confederation statement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The fixture will be played at the IBN Batouta Stadium in the Moroccan port city of Tangier on March 25.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The last time Morocco and Brazil met in an official match was in 1998 when Brazil prevailed 2-0 in Belen. The teams also crossed paths in the group stage of the 1998 World Cup in France, a match Brazil won 3-0.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
