A new call-up to the Colombian national team

Lorenzo’s coaching staff ordered the return of a goalscorer in friendlies in the US.

The last-minute call, combined with the concentration of the Colombian national team, confirmed the adage that “if they’re going to score, they’re going to save.”

Although he landed in Argentina several months ago and had a very good performance, he did not get a chance in the qualifiers, but it is now, against Venezuela, on the 10th of December, against Mexico, on the 16th, for the friendly fights in the United States. .

​

The new call-up, as he is really coming back, is Roger Baker Martinez, the racing forward from Argentina who arrived at the club in September and in these three months he has scored 4 goals in 15 games. They are a beginner.

​

FCF confirmed this on its social networks: “He joins a group of 20 players previously called up to our Colombian national team for friendlies.”

The 29-year-old striker had a good Copa America in 2019 and was in seven games with the Colombian national team in their unsuccessful run to Qatar 2022, but he will be back for revenge and why not become a substitute for the qualifiers. It’s all about taking advantage of this friendly showcase.
