Edgardo BAUZA: “There could be one that hasn’t been called-up yet”

Edgardo BAUZA spoke to the media about the list which he will be announcing on Friday.

With Argentina playing Brazil and Colombia next month, Edgardo BAUZA is getting ready to announce his list of players for those two matches. However, BAUZA spoke to the media on Thursday and here’s what he had to say:

“They’re difficult matches, different matches, we’re going to try and have a solid list of players.”

“There could be one that hasn’t been called-up yet. We’re analyzing.”

“We’re looking for some variations in midfield, there’s some players doing really well in the local league and others outside the country. We try to make as little mistakes as possible.”

“We have the best players but we also play against the best and the mistakes have costed us points in the last matches.”

Marcos ACUÑA, BUFFARINI rumored to be called up

Edgardo BAUZA will be announcing his list of players for November’s qualifiers on Friday and there’s some names rumored.

According to reports, Marcos ACUÑA (Racing) and Julio BAFFIRINI (Sao Paulo) are expected to make the team for November’s matches. Along with those two, there’s a chance that Fernando BELLUSCHI (San Lorenzo) also gets the call.
