The Peruvian National Team is preparing for a new date of international friendlies and the main expectation is to know the list of call-ups that Mano Menezes will present. The Brazilian coach has already been following various players from Liga 1 and abroad, but there is still no exact confirmed date for the publication of the roster.

According to the information circulating around the Bicolor, the call-up list would be known during this weekend, once the Liga 1 matchday concludes. In this way, the coaching staff would have the opportunity to observe the players of the local championship before finalizing the list.
When will Mano Menezes’ call-up list be announced?
The new call-up list of the Peruvian National Team would be known this weekend. For now, there is no exact time or day officially confirmed for the presentation of the roster.
The expectation remains because Mano Menezes has been expanding the pool of players who can be considered for the new Bicolor process. In August, the coach stated that he sought to broaden the call-up and continue evaluating alternatives for the team.
