Pezzella suffered a muscle injury

Due to injury, Germán Pezzella may miss the Copa America 2024 with the Argentina national team.

Pezzella can be eliminated from Argentina’s Copa America team. The 32-year-old is a major injury concern for the Argentina squad, and Leo Paradizo claims that he could miss the Copa America.

While playing for Real Betis in May, the Argentine sustained a minor muscular injury. Lucas Martínez Quarta and Leonardo Balerdi could replace Pezzella in the event that he misses the Copa America.

In preparation for their games against Ecuador and Guatemala, the Argentina national team is training in Miami. Lionel Scaloni, the coach of the Argentina national team, will narrow his roster of 29 participants to 26 for the Copa America in the United States.

The history, present, and future—from Messi to Garnacho and Di Maria to Julian Alvarez—should come together to deadly effect.

As usual, talisman Messi will bear the brunt of the strain. However, there will always be. He is possibly the all-time best player.

Even though he played at Inter Miami just a year ago, he continues to produce at a calibre that his contemporaries can only hope to consistently attain. Since he joined the Floridian team, he has contributed 25 goals in 13 games.

Their defensive strategy is based on Cristian Romero and Lisandro Martinez’s tough, no-nonsense style. After facing these two, strikers who line up against Argentina will know they are in for a difficult match.

Arguably the most disciplined midfield trios in international football are composed of Enzo Fernandez, Alex Mac Allister, and Rodrigo De Pual. In attack, players like Julian Alvarez and Alejandro Garnacho give a little variety to the apparent threat that Messi poses up top.
