Uruguay have named a 28-man squad for March friendlies against England and Algeria, the federation announced on Monday, with eight Brazil-based players included.
Marcelo Bielsa's side face England at Wembley on 27 March, then play Algeria four days later at Juventus Stadium in Turin.
The Brazil-based contingent comprises Guillermo Varela, Nicolás De la Cruz and Giorgian De Arrascaeta of Flamengo, Joaquín Piquerez and Emiliano Martínez of Palmeiras, Sergio Rochet of Internacional, Puma Rodríguez of Vasco and Agustín Canobbio of Fluminense.
De la Cruz, Canobbio and goalkeeper Fernando Muslera return after missing the previous call-up. Midfielder Nahitan Nández, who plays in Saudi football, is a notable omission, and none of the 28 are based in Uruguay.
These fixtures are Uruguay's final run-outs before Bielsa names his World Cup squad.
