The Argentine national team has received a severe blow ahead of the World Cup finals, which are expected to start in Qatar on 20 November until 18 December.

According to the Argentine website TyC Sports, Giovanni Lo Celso, the Spanish player of Villarreal, will miss the World Cup after undergoing a surgery that will exclude him from the tournament.

The report indicated that Villarreal have postponed the release of an official statement on the health condition of the player, who suffered a hamstring injury.

Lo Celso is expected to undergo surgery after doctors advised him not to rely on treatment, for fear of making his injury worse.

Lo Celso is considered one of the protagonists of Lionel Scaloni’s squad and his absence is a hard blow for the “Tango” team.

The Argentina national team is competing in the Qatar World Cup in Group C, which includes Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland.
