BUENOS AIRES, June 11: Lionel Messi, Sergio Agüero and Ángel Di María are headlining the Argentina squad that will head to Brazil for the Copa America, seeking their national team’s first major title since 1993. The list was published Thursday by South American football’s governing body, CONMEBOL.
Defender Juan Foyth and striker Lucas Ocampos are the most notable absentees from the 28-player squad, despite featuring regularly since Lionel Scaloni became head coach in 2018.
Scaloni’s squad included Cristian Romero and Nahuel Molina Lucero, who were brought to the senior team for the first time during the latest rounds of World Cup qualifiers. (AP)
