Marcos Senesi could be called up to the Italian national team as he is uncapped for Argentina.

Senesi is being linked not only to several European clubs but also to the Italian national team. According to SerieANews.com, the Argentine is being considered by Italy coach Roberto Mancini for their next call up.

Italy did not qualify for the 2022 Qatar World Cup but their next match is against Argentina at Wembley. If the defender is selected, he could make his national team debut against Argentina in June.

Franco Carboni spoke about Alejandro Garnacho of Manchester United being with the Argentina national team.

Carboni was one of the seven youth players called up for the March World Cup qualifiers by Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni. As we reported earlier, Carboni commented on being with the team and selecting to play for Argentina. However, Carboni also spoke about Alejandro Garnacho of Manchester United.

Alejandro Garnacho is born and raised in Madrid, Spain to an Argentine mother. He represented the Spanish youth national team before being selected for the Argentina national team. Garnacho gave an interview a few weeks ago in Spanish where he noticeably had a Spanish (from Spain) accent. Carboni had this to say about Garnacho:

“Garnacho told us he liked it a lot and that he wanted to come back to Argentina. He stopped talking in Spanish (accent) and started to talk a little (with an Argentine accent), even throwing in some swear words.”

This could be an indication that Garnacho would be more inclined to play for Argentina and not Spain.

Franco Carboni of Inter spoke about being called up to the Argentina national team and if he would select Argentina or Italy.

Carboni and his brother were part of the recent call-ups to the Argentina national team for the March World Cup qualifiers. With the Inter youth squad, both players trained and played with the Argentina U20 team, they did get to meet the senior national team. Speaking in an interview with TyC Sports, here is what he had to say:

“My brother trained a lot with the Italian national team and I also went. When we found out that they were following us from Argentina, we spoke to the scout that was here. After that, Mascherano called us and we talked to him.

“The truth is that we didn’t doubt it, we really wanted to go. Once the list came out and we saw our names there, we felt immense happiness.

“From the first day we got there, it was all crazy, a dream. From training with my U20 team mates to spending time with the older players, eating and being close to Messi, everything was beautiful. Everyone treamed me very well, both my team mates and the coaching staff. I hope I can come back.

“In the week we trained, Mascheranot old us that in May, there is an U20 tournament in France, in addition to the Sudamericano coming up in January. Garnacho told us he liked it a lot and that he wanted to come back to Argentina.”

In regards to having to pick between the Argentina national team and the Italian national team:

“If in the next call-up I am called by Italy and Argentina, I don’t doubt it, I will go for Argentina.

“I am very thankful to Italy for calling me up but that the Argentina national team calls you up is an enormous pride because it is my country. Being able to go to Ezeiza and seeing the camp was great pride and I am very happy about it.

“Being given instructions by former players like Mascherano, Samuel or Aimar is very nice. They are players who played in the Champions League and that they want to teach you beautiful things.”
