Eduardo Delmás confirms when he will join Paraguay’s Under-20 team

Eduardo Delmás expects to play for Olimpia against Sportivo Luqueño before traveling to join Paraguay’s Under-20 team for the Odesur Games in Santa Fe, Argentina.

“

I think we travel on Monday the 14th. I still don’t know exactly when I’ll join the national team, and they will sort that out and let me know today, surely.

The young Olimpia attacking midfielder discussed the matches he will miss because of his national-team call-up after another strong performance, this time against Sportivo Trinidense. The Odesur Games will take place from Sept. 12 to 26.

“

I think so. They were looking at whether it could be played on Sunday and then travel on Monday.

Asked about his travel plans, Delmás said: “I think we travel on Monday the 14th. I still don’t know exactly when I’ll join the national team, and they will sort that out and let me know today, surely.”

“

Yes, we can use him in the next match. He will be away all week, return before the match, and play. We’ll see how he is and how he develops.

He also addressed whether he could play the weekend match against Sportivo Luqueño, saying: “I think so. They were looking at whether it could be played on Sunday and then travel on Monday.” Sánchez confirmed that Olimpia plans to use him in the match, although the coach acknowledged the midfielder’s absence will affect the team after that game.

“

You can see how important he is to the way our team functions. And yes, after the Luqueño match, we lose him.
