Sub 20 World Cup: which club contributes the most players and what are the most brilliant names of the Dream Team that it wants to put together (if they let it) Mascherano

's decision

to take the venue for the

from Indonesia and grant it to

will give the team led by

 the chance to play a tournament for which they had not qualified due to their poor performance in the South American It was played between January and February in Colombia.

The coach, who had resigned and returned to his position due to this possibility, will have, a priori, a

, although this will depend, to a large extent, on the willingness of the European clubs to cede their players.

For the tournament that will take place between May 20 and June 11 in Santiago del Estero, San Juan, Mendoza and La Plata, and in which the national team will have as rivals in group A Uzbekistan,

and

, Mascherano made

(FIFA required that this list have between 35 and 55 members), of which 21 will be the ones who will compete in the competition.

Of the 37 shortlisted, 12 work abroad.

To count on them, the

must do a fine job of convincing each of the foreign clubs, which do not have the obligation to release their players.

In fact,

.

On the other hand, with the vernacular institutions, there will be no need to negotiate since the Statute of the mother house of national football compels them to cede them.

Article 85, subparagraph 4 of that regulatory body establishes that if a player does not show up for "training, concentrations, concerted matches, practices, etc."

of a national team that participates in an official tournament, "will be automatically disqualified from integrating teams of any discipline and category and of any club for the entire period that the activities and matches of the team for which they had been summoned last, and will be subject to the final pronouncement and corresponding sanctions”.

Of the 12 youngsters included in Mascherano's preliminary list, 10 work in Europe: four do so in Italy (

-Juventus-,

-Lazio- and the brothers

-Inter- and

-Monza-) , three in England (

-Manchester United-,

-Manchester City- and

-Brighton & Hove Albion-), two in Spain (

-Barcelona Atlètic- and

-Real Madrid Castilla-) and one in Portugal (

-Sporting Lisbon-).

Several kids with very good projection were left off the payroll, such as Thiago Geralnik (Villarreal) and the former Ferro, Lucas Román (Barcelona Atlètic).

To the 10 who are making their first weapons in the

are added two who play in America:

from Mendoza , who after a very good season at Independiente Rivadavia was transferred to Huachipato de Chile at the beginning of 2022, and

, who in March was sold by Lanús to the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer.

Shortly after his participation in the South American U-20 tournament in Colombia, Julián Aude was transferred by Lanús to the Los Angeles Galaxy.

This proportion of shortlisted who work abroad marks a change compared to the list that Mascherano made for the South American Championship: on that occasion, of the 23 chosen only two worked abroad (Buonanotte and Paz).

Despite the very weak performance of the team in that tournament in Colombia (they lost three of their four games and did not get past the first round),

.

The 25 that play in Argentina represent 17 clubs from the City of Buenos Aires and from five provinces: Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Córdoba, Santiago del Estero and Tucumán.

The clubs that contribute the most, with three representatives each, are Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata (

,

and

) and Rosario Central (

,

and

).

But the

can also show his chest because among those mentioned there are two others who wore his shirt until just a few months ago: Tanlongo and Buonanotte.

Lanús is one of the clubs that collaborates with two soccer players (

and

), as do Boca, San Lorenzo and Vélez.

's contribution

could extend to Aude, from which it parted just a month ago, and to

, whose pass belongs to the club from the south of Greater Buenos Aires, but who is on loan at Central Córdoba in Santiago del Estero.

When it comes to experience, the one with the most flight hours in First Division is Infantino, who participated in 66 games with the Rosario Central shirt.

He is followed by Aude (54 games in Lanús, he made his debut last weekend in Los Angeles Galaxy) and another man from Central, Véliz (50).

Among those who have made their career entirely abroad,

(in which he scored 4 goals and provided 5 assists) and Luka Romero has 30 between Lazio (21) and Mallorca (9).

With one foot on each side, Tanlongo (36 games at Rosario Central and 12 at Sporting de Lisboa) and Buonanotte (34 at Rosario Central and 5 at Brighton & Hove Albion) also have a good run.

At the other extreme, six of the 37 shortlisted have not made their debut in the First Division:

,

,

,

,

and

.

They could be added to

and

, who are part of the squads of the subsidiary teams of Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively, which participate in the First Federation, the third division of Spanish football.

Of the four goalkeepers chosen by Mascherano, the only one who has experience in the First Division is

, who defended Newell's fence six times in 2022 before being loaned out to Barracas Central this year.

Among those chosen by DT to seek the seventh U-20 world title for Argentina, there are four who were born outside the country: three in Spain (Paz, Garnacho and Federico Redondo

and one in Mexico (Romero).

A particular case is that of

in the South American that was played just three months ago.
