Chilean National Team

The Chilean National Team He is already beginning to prepare for what will be his tremendous challenge in 2024, in which ‘La Roja’ is close to playing a new edition of the America Cupwhich will be held in the United States.

For what this important challenge will be, a national historic as it is Carlos Caszely spoke with Radio ADN and referred to an important issue linked to the selection, the absence of Arturo vidal within this call, in which he received a tremendous slap on the wrist.

“Arturo is a man who makes a difference throughout his career, but if he had wanted to keep an eye on the national team, he would not have gone on vacation to the United States and ride in a helicopter. “He would have been worried about preparing,” Caszely began by stating.

Continuing along this line, the ‘king of the square meter’ indicates that if the ‘King’ had continued preparing, Ricardo Gareca could have called him up to fill the list of 26 players, which the ‘Tigre’ sealed with Nicolás Fernández and Esteban Pavez.

“He has been improving game by game, we saw it with the goal he scored to qualify for the Copa Libertadores and Católica, but if he had been 100% interested in the national team, he would not have gone on vacation,” he explained.

Finally, Caszely left his positive impressions of Ricardo Gareca’s process in the Chilean National Team, in which he sees a team that is quite competitive and aggressive to attack, which fills his palate thinking about the future.

“I was surprised by Gareca’s team the other day against Paraguay, because I saw it as very agile and similar to what Marcelo Bielsa did with the national team: without so much return or transition, but rather going directly to the opposing goal,” he concluded.
