The coach of the Argentine National Team, Lionel Scaloni, has announced the preliminary list of called-up players for the next double date of the South American Qualifiers, which will take place in March with matches against Brazil at home and Uruguay as visitors.
The preliminary list of 33 players includes important figures such as Lionel Messi and several World Cup champions, but also presents some surprises. Notably, there are only two players from local football: Gonzalo Montiel and Germán Pezzella, both from River Plate.
Among the new names in the call-up are Máximo Perrone, Nicolás Paz, Francisco Ortega, Benjamín Domínguez, and "Diablito" Echeverri, who will have the opportunity to join the national squad.
This pre-selection offers a combination of experience and youth, demonstrating Scaloni's intention to maintain a balance in the team. It is important to highlight that the final call-up will be announced soon, so these players will have to compete for a spot in the final roster.
The presence of new talents in the preliminary list reflects the constant search for renewal and the openness to emerging players who can bring freshness to the national team. Without a doubt, the Argentine National Team is preparing to face the upcoming challenges in the South American Qualifiers with strength and determination.
