The central defender, Xavier Arreaga, had to leave the camp due to an injury and returned to the Seattle Sounders in Washington to start his rehabilitation.
Arreaga could not have minutes in this call because his teammates Félix Torres and Piero Hincapié are the new owners of the central defense block, so it becomes more competitive for the player to re-enter the starting role.
In the weekend’s training, the defender had a physical friction that triggered a discomfort and that after being evaluated it was determined that the injury was going to prevent him from continuing with the normal selection work, so the decision was made to return to his club, where it will be a sensitive loss since the Ecuadorian had been from the starting team in the last games.
In that area, the strategist Gustavo Alfaro still has Luis Fernando León and Robert Arboleda, who can play in the Hincapié and Torres variant to close the double round of the South American Qualifiers.
