  1. There is Valentini, Facundo medina, Agustin Gray, Valentin Gomez, Gaston Avilla, Nuheun Perez ( will unfortunately be 24 by then) who can play as defenders. There are also too many young midfielders. Including DePaul,Otamedi will be selfish and demoralizing towards building future of the team.

  2. Otamendi, dibu, de Paul all wanted to play Olympics, if mache got all 3 it will be good squad along with young players.

  3. Meanwhile, Hernan Crespo’s team Al Ain eliminated CR Al Nassr in the AFC Champions League, Congrats Crespo, will in the European elite club radar.
