The players of the Argentine national team are ready to ask their players to try not to play club games in the days before the World Cup.
According to the Doble Amarilla medium, the weekend between November 11 and 13 will see many albicelestes players make an effort not to play for their clubs.
The measure is not only intended to prevent players from getting injured before the tournament, but also to give them rest.
Argentina, current champion of the Copa América, is emerging as one of the favorites to lift the most coveted prize in football.
Under the double yellow, it is recognized that such an action will not be easy for players with their sticks to carry out.
As a result, the AFA, the South American football federation, is ready to help players successfully persuade their clubs.
❗️It won’t be easy, but the intention of the players is that. AFA will help them. @okdobleamarilla ????????

If this happens, Manchester United are likely to miss out on the services of Lisandro Martinez and Alejandro Garnacho, both from Argentina.
Martinez has become a mainstay in United’s backline since his arrival from Ajax, where he has teamed up with Raphael Varane, helping the Red Devils achieve much-needed defensive solidity in recent weeks.
The 24-year-old is likely to be Argentina’s starting centre-back alongside Tottenham’s Cristian Romero.
Another who could be left out is Garnacho, who harbors ambitions to be included in Argentina’s squad for the World Cup.
The youth squad has barely featured for United this season. Still, with plenty of games between now and the start of the competition, he could put in a lot of effort to be included on the team if he starts playing regularly. He is not far from the realm of reality.
Martínez and the young garnacho could miss out against Aston Villa in the League Cup on November 10 before traveling to London to face Fulham on the 13th.
