Giuliano Simeone: A Golden Opportunity with the Albiceleste?
The international break brings with it the possibility of seeing Giuliano Simeone, an Atlético de Madrid player, consolidate his place in the Argentine national team.
With five Rojiblancos called up by the Albiceleste (Nahuel Molina, Rodrigo De Paul, Ángel Correa, Julián Álvarez, and Giuliano Simeone himself), attention is focused on the young forward.
The injury to Lautaro Martínez opens up a range of opportunities in the Argentine attack, where Giuliano could play an important role. Coach Lionel Scaloni faces the challenge of defining the attacking lineup for the Río de la Plata classic against Uruguay.
Giuliano Simeone emerges as one of the main options, along with Thiago Almada, to accompany Julián Álvarez and Nicolás González. Despite having only nine minutes played in his debut with the senior national team in November 2024, Giuliano could surprise in the starting eleven.
Argentina, leading the South American qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup with 25 points, is preparing to face Uruguay and Brazil. The possible inclusion of Giuliano Simeone in the starting lineup generates great expectation among Atleti fans, eager to see the young talent prove his worth on a world-class stage. After the match against Uruguay, Argentina will face Brazil at the Estadio Monumental.
