Rossi, one of the surprises of the preliminary list of the Argentine National Team for the Qatar 2022 World Cup
Agustín Rossi, one of the great figures of Boca in the seasonis on the preliminary list of the Argentine National Team for the 2022 Qatar World Cup. In Lionel Scaloni’s consideration, he is the sixth goalkeeper: he is ahead of Emiliano “Dibu” Martínez (owner of the Albiceleste goal), Franco Armani, Gerónimo Rulli, Agustín Marchesín and Juan Musso (recovering from a fracture in the right maxilla) .
The Boca footballer had a summons to the national team: he was urgently summoned by Lionel Scaloni before Franco Armani dropped for the duel against Bolivia, for the Qualifiers for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, in September 2021.
Meza, Garnacho, Soulé and Pereyra, other surprises in the preliminary list of the Argentine National Team
Maximiliano Meza, a soccer player for Monterrey in Mexico, is another of the surprises on the preliminary list of the Argentine National Team. The former Independiente midfielder, who played in the 2018 World Cup in Russia, had been called up urgently after an injury to Joaquín Correa for the duels against Chile and Colombia, in January of this year, for the Qualifiers heading to Qatar 2022.
On the other hand, Lionel Scaloni also scored Alejandro Garnacho and Matías Soulé (Manchester United and Juventus youngsters), youngsters he previously quoted to follow closelyalthough they still haven’t even gone to the bank with Mayor de la Albiceleste. Also, the coach added Roberto “el Tucu” Pereyrawho is currently at Udinese in Italy.
When will the final list of the Argentine National Team for the Qatar 2022 World Cup be known?
The regulation allowed up to 55 footballers to be included, although the DT put approximately 48. From those names will come the 26 who will travel to Qatar to represent the Albiceleste. If an injured person arises, someone who does not appear on this preliminary list could be added. The definitive one, that of 26 footballers, must be delivered on November 14, six days before the start of the World Cup.
