Argentina head coach Lionel Scaloni has named a 28-man squad for November’s friendlies against Uruguay and Costa Rica.
Fanat.az reports that the announcement was made on the national team’s social media account.
One of the most notable omissions from the squad is Lautaro Martínez. The Inter Milan striker has not been called up because of a thigh muscle injury. He is reportedly expected to be sidelined for around 4-6 weeks.
Paulo Dybala has also been left out of the squad. However, his absence differs from Lautaro Martínez’s situation. It has not been confirmed that Dybala’s omission is due to injury.
Scaloni has also called up new players. Chelsea defender Aaron Anselmino has received his first Argentina call-up. Parma defender Mariano Troilo has also been included in the squad.
Argentina will face Uruguay on 13 November and Costa Rica on 17 November.
