Brasilia-born footballer Tiago Silva was included in the line up of Bulgaria's national squad for the friendly game with Turkey scheduled for August 17.
The national coach Hristo Stoitchkov has also included two other neophytes Milan Koprivarov and Tsvetan Genkov in the line up.
Tiago Silva, who plays for the champion CSKA, received Bulgarian passport in the spring of 2004, when he played for the Lovech Litex football team.
The captain of the national team Stilian Petrov and young hopeful Valeri Bozhinov have not been invited so far.
Stoitchkov is said to experiment with the team and the players during the August 17 game.
