Argentina could be looking into bringing in USA youth team captain Giovanni Reyna into the team.
Per a report by TyC Sports, the AFA are watching Giovanni Reyna closely and are planning on calling him up in the near future. Reyna was captain of the USA team at the last U17 World Cup and while still 17 years old, the attacking midfielder he has already featured for Borussia Dortmund.
He is the son of Claudio Reyna who played over 100 matches with the USA national team. Giovanni’s grandfather was born in Argentina which makes him eligible to play for Argentina. Despite playing for their youth team, Reyna would still be eligible to play for the Argentina national team.
However, it wouldn’t just be Argentina which would be interested in Reyna. He was born in Sunderland, England when his father was a player for the club. Portugal is also another one which would be looking at him as his grandmother is born in that country.
Giovanni Reyna scored his first goal for Borussia Dortmund in their 3-2 loss vs. Werder in the German cup.
I don’t think there are 2 places for enganche in the 23 for the copa. Will be tough for Scaloni to choose between Mac Allister and Lo Celso. I think Scaloni prefers to start with Paredes and some hardworking midfielders around instead of a real DM + playmaker. That’s why only 1 place for enganche.
true paredes seems to be the first name on the team sheet for scaloni but its frustrating to see the lack of first team opportunities
Palacios should starts anyway.
In a 4-4-2 Diamond (4-1-2-1-2 or 4-3-1-2) we can fit Paredes, De Paul, Palacios and Lo Celso/Mac Allister but in a regular wide 4-4-2 De Paul would be on left flank and Ocampos on right, with Paredes and either Palacios or Lo Celso in CM.
These are the main formations Scaloni has mentioned he would use or am I missing some?
Fair enough, France and Italy took Trezeguet and Cameronesi who became world champion.
Lot of Argentine played for Italy and won the world cup before.
In 2006, Higuain asked for the French passport for his transfer to RM and the French national team was ready to take him. Unfortunately for Argentina, he declined the invitation…
There will be real headache for Lionel Scaloni in choosing players for qualifiers.Palacios,Montiel and Mac Allister are must in the team.By the way when Scaloni going to announce the squad as match is in 26 march
Gio Reyna most probably prefer US. His parents both played for US.
100%, we dont need him btw
I really appreciate this new effort or agenda to source promising players eligible to play for Argentina. Though I really doubt Giovanni Reyna will consider Argentina.
Argentina also need to be watching Klimowicz since he is also eligible to play for Poland (his father turned down the offer during his playing days).
After losing Sergio Mingo to Barcelona, Boca acted swiftly to hand young Gaston Avila his debut.
A new Zarate has been promoted to the Velez squad. Tobias Zarate is the son of Rolando Zarate, who is the brother of Mauro Zarate.
During this window River also lost Giuliano Simeone(the youngest of Simeone brothers) to Atletico.
While Clubs protest players leaving for nothing, the playersβ parents/agent complain about lack of opportunities and prospect at their parent clubs. I would agree with the parents/players especially with the way Boca and River treat home grown talents.
River ,Boca ,edtudiants are old aged homes ππ
I prefer Velez over these clubs even though my favourite club in Argentina is river
you shud see lanus also they have the youngest amoung the top 4 teams currently. even defensa y justicia always have a young side
true especially clubs like boca juniors have soo many gems in their ranks but they are needlessly buying old european players like de rossi n buying europe flops like edaurdo salvio although salvio is a gud buy as he is in his prime but boca are so desperate to win a title tat they are turning a blind eye to their talent n tnking buying is the solution even though they dont even have the financial power.
Mateo klimowicz was fantastic last night except the sitter he missed right at the end in the stoppage time.
Overally he was good at the right and played some fantastic passes in final third.
Is he Argentine…?
and his mom also played for USA womans NT. Hes def going to play for murica.
Lol…..πππ
