Coach Mano Menezes announced on Monday his first call-up as the head of the Peruvian national team. The list includes midfielder André Carrillo from Corinthians.
The 34-year-old player has played over 100 matches for the national team and was part of the campaign that brought the country back to the World Cup in 2018. This season, he alternates between starting and being a substitute for Timão, having appeared in 12 matches.
In the upcoming FIFA dates, the Peruvian team will face Senegal and Honduras. The friendlies are scheduled for March 28 and 31, respectively.
Peru missed out on the 2026 World Cup. The team finished the South American Qualifiers in ninth place, with 12 points in 18 matches played. The absence from the World Cup prompted a change in the coaching staff, bringing in Mano Menezes.
