Canobbio called up by Uruguay, returns to the national team after 21 months | OneFootball

Agustín Canobbio has been called up by the Uruguay national team for the FIFA International Break and will report this Monday. The forward is returning to the squad after 21 months. His last call-up was in 2024, for the Copa América.

During this period, Uruguay will play two friendlies: against England on March 27, at 4:45 PM (Brasília time), and against Algeria on March 31, at 4:30 PM (Brasília time). His return comes amid a good run of form at Fluminense.

Canobbio has been involved in four goals in his last four matches: he scored against Remo, Athletico-PR, and Vasco, and provided an assist in the victory over Atlético-MG at Maracanã. His absence from recent call-ups was due to disagreements among some national team players under Marcelo Bielsa’s management, especially after the Copa América.

Now, the new call-up puts the forward back on the radar and keeps alive his goal of playing in another World Cup — he was with Uruguay at the 2022 World Cup.
