Federico Ricca has been reserved as a ‘footballer from abroad’ by the Uruguayan Football Association, for the ‘Celeste’ team’s next two commitments in South America.
This will be the third consecutive call-up by Uruguay’s first team for Federico Ricca should his reservation be confirmed; a formula used by the Uruguayan Association to give those who play overseas plenty of notice.
The left-back, who has not yet debuted under the orders of Óscar Tabárez, is reserved for the Uruguay-Ecuador(10th November, Montevideo) andChile-Uruguay (15th November, Santiago) matches, corresponding to the South American qualifiers for the Russia 2018 World Cup.
