A selected player could miss the event due to injury, Scaloni is crossing his fingers and hopes it is nothing serious.

There is less and less time left for the ball to roll at the World Cup in Qatar. The hosts and Ecuador will play the opening match. The Argentine national team will face Saudi Arabia on November 22.

In this context, Lionel Messi and the Albiceleste received terrible news, as the participation of a player of the champion of America is in danger. The player in question is Paulo Dybala. The 'Jewel' suffered an injury in the last Serie A match and Jose Mourinho, Roma coach, commented that it is difficult to see the Argentine before 2023.

Alarm bells immediately went off in Lionel Scaloni's coaching staff, who is waiting for the official results to determine whether or not the striker can travel to the World Cup in Qatar.

In principle, it is estimated that there is a tear that would keep Dybala away from the field for 21 days. However, if the tests show a less encouraging result, the former Juventus player would be Scaloni's first choice for the World Cup, where Argentina will face Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland in the group stage.

Is Dybala's presence assured on sporting merits?

Before the start of the European season, Scaloni mentioned that Paulo Dybala's participation in the World Cup was not guaranteed. However, his current form at Roma, where he has seven goals and two assists, opened the doors again for the event that will take place in the Middle East. Now, it is expected that the tests will be positive and he will be able to accompany the delegation to Qatar.
