Garnacho’s posts after not being called up to the Argentine National Team

He avoided criticism by focusing on Manchester United’s Premier League success rather than his omission from the Albiceleste roster.

Alejandro Garnacho Argentine National Team

It came as a surprise that Alejandro Garnacho wasn’t included on Lionel Scaloni’s roster for the Argentine National Team’s doubleheader of South American Qualifiers. A man like him, born into the internet age, might have found a way to express himself online. However, instead of stirring up trouble or simply being upbeat, he wrote extensively about Manchester United’s monumental Premier League triumph.

This Saturday, Manchester United beаt Luton Town 1-0 with a goal from Victor Lindelöf, during the 12th matchday of the 2023/24 Premier League. The Red Devils, featuring Alejandro Garnacho (who began but was removed in the 67th minute), won at Old Trafford and are still in contention for a cup spot.

The match took place one day after it was reported that Lionel Scaloni did not summon Garnacho to the Argentine National Team to play against Uruguay and Brazil, due to the double date of the South American Qualifiers. The Euroboy celebrated United’s triumph with two Instagram stories after the game: “Three important points,” he wrote with a photo of himself and coach Erik ten Hag.

A defense of the decision not to call up Garnacho for the Argentine National Team

The youthful star from Manchester United, who made his debut at La Scaloneta on FIFA matchday in June and saw additional playing time in the qualifiers against Bolivia, was not called up by the national team coach.

Two key players, ngel Di Mara and Paulo Dybala, who missed the previous two games with injuries, are now available again, which may explain why the jewel wasn’t called up.

Scaloni also included two unexpecteԀ selections: Spanish right back Pablo Maffeo (whose mother is Argentine) and former Vélеz left winger Francisco Ortega (now a starter for Olympiakos in Greece).
