Belgrano has some important news: Alcides Benítez may be called up to the Paraguay national team. The Paraguayan full-back is on a preliminary list of 35 players selected by coach Gustavo Alfaro.

What happened?

The Paraguay national team will play two friendly matches in March, against Greece and Morocco, and Benítez could be part of the team. Since his arrival at Belgrano, the player has shown his value to the team.

Why is it important for Belgrano?

The possible call-up of Benítez is a recognition of his good performance in the Argentine club. However, it could also mean that he will miss some important matches with Belgrano, such as the Copa Argentina match against Atlético de Rafaela.

What comes next?

The confirmation of the call-up is expected for the international double match at the end of the month. If his departure to Alfaro's team is confirmed, Benítez will join the Paraguay national team for the matches against Greece and Morocco.
