Zanetti, Cambiasso and Gago Left out of Argentina’s World Cup Squad

Diego Maradona once again created surprises by strange selection. Recently, he has declared Argentina’s 30-man provisional squad for the upcoming world cup. Surprisingly, Maradona did not include three players like Javier Zanetti, Esteban Cambiasso and Fernando Gago.

Javier Zanetti is one of the most experienced Argentine players currently active in international football. The Inter Milan defender has the experience of representing Argentina in two world cup tournaments. His Inter Milan team mate Esteban Cambiasso is another surprise exclusion who has been in excellent form this season for the Milan club. The midfielder helped Inter reach the Champions League final.

There were very few people who could think of Fernando Gago being left out of Argentina’s preliminary squad. The Real Madrid midfielder has been in good form with his club.

Since taking up the charge of Argentina national team last year, Diego Maradona surprised the world football with his bizarre selection. He called up many veteran players who had already seen their best with Argentina.
