Yesterday, Lionel Scaloni announced a pre-list of 44 players to play the next two qualifying matches for the World Cup to be held in Qatar. This list corresponds to the matches that the Argentina team will play against Venezuela, which is already eliminated, and Ecuador, who is playing for World Cup qualification. The Argentine team is already qualified for this competition.
In this list we see regular players like Messi, Dybala, Emi Mártinez… And also new ones that Scaloni could give them a chance. One of those is Nico Paz, a player in the Real Madrid academy, the 17-year-old player is the son of Pablo Paz.
The Argentine player has dual nationality, Spanish and Argentine, so if he is finally present on the list of 23 players, he would no longer be eligible for the Spanish team.
The young player has made his Castilla debut at just 17 years old. He normally plays as a midfielder, although due to his abilities and tactical and technical deployment he also plays winger roles.
He started playing like his father, center back, but he realized that his occupation on the field was not linked to defensive positions, but rather to attacking positions, that’s how he went from center back to center forward. Later his coaches used him as a midfielder due to his qualities as a footballer.
