Lionel Scaloni announced the list of called-up players for the friendly matches before the Copa America against Ecuador and Guatemala. The coach named 29 players, three of whom will have to leave the squad, as the final squad for the tournament will consist of 26 players and must be submitted by 15 June at the latest.

The different leagues are coming to an end after a long season and the summer is approaching, where the main footballing attraction will be the national team competitions. One of them is the Copa America, where Argentina will be defending their title and which kicks off on 20 June against Canada.

Lionel Scaloni offered this Monday a first initial list of 29 players for the previous friendlies against Ecuador and Guatemala, both in the United States.

The bulk of the squad that will defend the title in the United States will be kept from here, although the coach will have to make three exclusions to keep the final squad to a maximum of 26 players.

However, the list can be modified as much as he wants, as long as it is sent by 15 June at the latest. In other words, some names, such as Paulo Dybala, still have a chance of being present at the Copa America.
