Cáceres believes that competition with Europeans distances him from the Uruguayan team | Sports Social Networks

The Uruguayan Sebastián Cáceres, defender of the Mexican soccer team, considered this Friday that the competition with his compatriots who are in European football has kept him from being called up to the national team.

“The competition that I have in my position is tough. All those who have been called are in Europe, from there they get that advantage because the level they are playing is a little higher and it is one of the biggest factors why Diego Alonso takes the decision,” he explained at a press conference.

The Uruguayan soccer coach, Diego Alonso, will not be able to count on the youth team with which he had been training since the beginning of January to use as a sparring partner, since 14 of them tested positive for covid-19.

This was announced by the Uruguayan Football Association (AUF) in a brief statement detailing that, in addition to them, four officials from the Celeste Complex – where the team trains – also contracted the disease.
