The injury-prone Lisandro Martinez heads into this summer likely as the main source of defensive cover for similarly injury- and suspension-prone Cristian Romero, as well as veteran centre-back Nicolas Otamendi. The Manchester United defender played that role in Qatar in 2022 and his ability to play at left-back could also come in handy for Scaloni, competing with Nicolas Tagliafico and potentially Valentin Barco, who has established himself as a midfielder at Strasbourg.
