Boca Juniors to Face Uruguay National Team in Friendly

The Boca Juniors team could play a friendly match with the Uruguay National Team at the Centenario Stadium. According to the Uruguayan newspaper Minuto Uno, this match would serve as a farewell for forward Edinson Cavani from the Uruguayan national team.

The AUF is interested in organizing the match, although it will depend on whether Cavani is called up by coach Marcelo Bielsa for an official match for Uruguay. If he receives the call-up, the friendly would be definitively canceled.

This opportunity would allow Cavani to receive the affection of both Uruguayan fans and Boca Juniors supporters. While waiting for a response from those involved in the organization, the forward continues training with the team led by Fernando Gago.

It has not yet been revealed whether Cavani will play part of the match in one jersey and part in another, or if he will only wear the colors of Uruguay. The project is in its initial phase and will evolve depending on the circumstances of this sports year.

Despite being a possibility, the realization of this friendly has a low probability of materializing, especially if Cavani is required for an official match with Uruguay. Otherwise, the idea could become a reality for the enjoyment of fans from both sides.
