Lautaro leaves Argentina training camp with harmstring injury

Lionel Scaloni's headaches continue in this date of the qualifiers. Argentina is facing two matches against Uruguay and Brazil that could mark much of the path of the 'Albiceleste' in the qualifying phase for the 2026 World Cup.

However, the coach's list has been quite conditioned by the issue of injuries. Undoubtedly, the absence of Leo Messi is the most notable, although there have also been others, such as, for example, that of Paulo Dybala.

But Argentina's problems do not end there. On Wednesday, it was announced the absence of another important player, Lautaro Martinez, who will miss the two matches due to a muscle injury in the hamstring of his left leg.

All of Argentina's offensive weight will fall on Julian Alvarez, who will start both matches. The Atletico striker is going through a hot moment, but he has only scored 2 goals in the 12 qualifiers he has already played.
