[DavidEU 2,023]

David Luiz has been called up to represent Brazil at the London Olympics as one of the three players in the squad over the age of 23.

The 25-year-old will join up with his teammates in Brazil on 9 July for training, before they fly to England to take on Great Britain in a pre-tournament warm-up game at Middlesbrough's Riverside Stadium on 20 July.

The Olympic football competition is scheduled to run from 26 July until 11 August, with the new Barclays Premier League campaign starting a week later.

Good choice by Brasil imo, Luiz is a natural leader and fairly inspirational. Youngster will definitely look up to him.

So Beckham's confirmed he will not be playing for Team GB after Pearce decided to leave him out. Thoughts? I think its a ridiculous decision personally.

Happy that it will not be an utter wank fest over Beckham...

Love Beckham as a professional and what he's done for England and all.. But seriously, this tournament should be used for England to showcase some young potential.
