SeleFla: 6 Flamengo players called up for World Cup qualifiers | OneFootball

Samuel Lino and Arrascaeta are among the Flamengo players who have been called up

The price you pay for having a star-studded squad is losing players to national team call-ups. Flamengo, for example, had six players called up to represent their respective countries. Thus, Brazilians, Uruguayans, a Colombian, and an Ecuadorian reported to their national teams this Monday (01).

The forward Samuel Lino, called up to replace the injured Matheus Cunha, is at Granja Comary with the Brazilian National Team delegation. Carlo Ancelotti’s squad will face Chile this Thursday (04) and Bolivia on Tuesday (09).

Who are the Uruguayans?

Arrascaeta, Viña, and Varela are in Montevideo, Uruguay. The trio, called up by Marcelo Bielsa, will face Peru this Thursday (04) and Chile on Tuesday (09). The only one left out was De la Cruz, who has only recently returned from injury.

Who else?

The forward Gonzalo Plata is traveling to Guayaquil, Ecuador, to train with Sebastián Beccacece’s squad. With the left winger available, the Ecuadorian National Team will face Paraguay this Thursday (04) and Argentina on Tuesday (09).

Finally, coach Néstor Lorenzo has called up midfielder Jorge Carrascal for the Colombian National Team. The recent arrival at Flamengo could play this Thursday (04) against Bolivia and, on Tuesday (09), face Venezuela.

And what about Flamengo?

While the called-up players prepare, Flamengo awaits the end of the FIFA break. Therefore, the next match will only be on the 14th of this month, when Filipe Luís’s team faces Juventude in the Campeonato Brasileiro.
