This player from Argentina miss the World Cup at the last minute

The medical team of the Argentine team reported Friday that the former River Plate player Manuel Lanzini, 25, suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, which leaves him out of the 2018 World Cup, according to the Telesur multistate.

Now the Argentine team must replace the playmaker with another flyer, which is expected to have the offensive and ball-handling characteristics that Lanzini has.

The serious injury requires months of recovery, which is why the player can not participate in what would be his first World Cup. The information related to who will replace Lanzini may be given up to 24 hours before the first match of the Argentine team in the World Cup, which will be on June 16 against Iceland.
