Brazil, the title holder of the Copa America, will not boycott the competition, which is held at home against a backdrop of controversy.

A publicity stunt for President Bolsonaro, despite a situation not necessarily brighter in Brazil, which made the Seleçao players react, which we believed at one time would boycott the competition.
In a statement, however, the 2019 South American champions confirmed that despite their disagreement over the organization of this competition in Brazil, they will indeed participate.
