Bogota : Colombia head coach Jose Pekerman has included seven Atletico Nacional footballers in his squad for a friendly against Brazil in Rio de Janeiro next week.

Felipe Aguilar, Farid Diaz, Daniel Bocanegra, Mateus Uribe, Macnelly Torres, Miguel Borja and Andres Felipe Ibarguen were named by Pekerman in a 16-man squad on Friday, reports Xinhua.

Wednesday's clash at the Engenhao stadium will feature only South American-based players due to it not falling on an official FIFA date.

All of the gate collection will be donated to families affected by the LaMia plane crash in Colombia in November.

As many as 71 people died in the accident, including 19 players from Brazil's Chapecoense football club and all of the coaching staff.

Goalkeepers: David Gonzalez (Medellin), Camilo Vargas (Cali)
