Nico Paz
21-Year-Old

Serie A
Being limited in training
Paz missed Thursday training as a precaution and is expected back for Friday session, Gastón Edul reports.
ANALYSIS
Paz was back after a month out with a knee injury and used the Iceland friendly to put his fitness concerns to rest, but a cautious approach from coach Lionel Scaloni and the staff kept him out of Thursday's session as they managed the hamstring area around his left knee. The move was purely precautionary and he was due back for Friday's training. Even fully fit, though, Paz is unlikely to feature heavily for Argentina given the volume of attacking talent competing for places in Lionel Scaloni's squad.
