According to Ace news agency, Luis Suarez, the former striker of Liverpool and Barca, has been invited by Marcelo Bielsa to the Uruguay national team camp. Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani, the two strikers of the Uruguayan national team, were away from their country’s national team for a while, and now they are going to play in their country’s national team again to participate in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Uruguay is going to visit Argentina and Bolivia in two World Cup qualifiers next month, and Marcelo Bielsa has counted on his experienced strikers for the two upcoming matches.
Suarez, who is said to be going to Inter Miami soon, has not played for the Uruguay national team since the game against Ghana in the 2022 World Cup and has not even been invited to the team’s camp. At that time, Diego Alonso was in charge of Uruguay, but the failure of Uruguay to advance to the round of 16 of the World Cup caused him to be removed from his position.
Previously, the fans of the Uruguayan national football team had created a campaign with the hashtag #SuárezANacional and demanded the return of this striker to the Uruguayan national team.
Marcelo Bielsa of Argentina had preferred not to use Suarez and Cavani since he started his career in the Uruguayan national football team, and instead of inviting them, he preferred to turn to the youth. Now it seems that his plans have changed. The former Leeds coach’s change of mind is probably due to Suarez’s brilliance at the club level; Where he has scored 22 goals in 46 games in Brazil. Suarez has scored six goals and provided five assists in his last 10 games. His goals helped Gremio move up the table and finish fourth in the Brazilian league, 9 points away from the top.
Also, Edinson Cavani, the striker of Boca Juniors, is also likely to be invited to the Uruguayan national football team camp for the upcoming two important matches.
Uruguay, under the leadership of Oscar Washington Tabarez Silva, reached the fourth place in the World Cup. This happened in 2010 in South Africa. He also led Uruguay to the championship in Copa America 2011, but Uruguayan football has not been in good condition for years now.
