Colombia announced, this Thursday (17), the list of players called up for the next FIFA international window. Despite the presence of some names from Brazilian football, such as Jhon Arias, Kevin Viveros and Andrés Gomez, Flamengo’s Jorge Carrascal was left out of the squad list.
Called up for the 2026 World Cup, Carrascal was left out by Lorenzo for the next FIFA international window, which takes place between September 21 and October 6. It is worth noting that, in the world tournament, the midfielder remained on the bench in every match. As a result, the Flamengo player did not feature in any game in the competition.
Therefore, Jhon Arias of Palmeiras, Andrés Gomez of Vasco, Kevin Castaño of Atlético-MG, and Kevin Viveros of Athletico-PR were the called-up players who play in Brazilian football. In addition, Néstor Lorenzo also called up Richard Ríos, a former Flamengo player who now plays for Benfica (POR).
The Colombian national team will play three friendlies in this FIFA international window, all in the United States. On September 26, the opponent will be Mexico in Baltimore. Then, on October 2, Colombia will face Paraguay in New Jersey. Finally, on October 6, they will close the run against Peru in Miami.
The Flamengo players already confirmed on the official list for the FIFA international window are Giorgian de Arrascaeta and Guillermo Varela, called up by the Uruguay national team. At the same time, coach Carlo Ancelotti called up Pedro and Samuel Lino for the Brazil national team.
In addition, Gonzalo Plata and Anthony Valencia could be called up by the Ecuador national team, since they played for Ecuador in the World Cup. Finally, Jorginho is on Italy’s preliminary list and could return to represent the national team.
