Divine justice: Germán Ezequiel Cano will be able to enjoy a World Cup for the first time. The Argentine striker from Fluminense will have a more than deserved award, after coming out as the top scorer in Brasileirão 2022 after scoring 26 goals this season.
It’s a bombshell, because Cano has already finished his campaign and went on vacation. And although many asked Lionel Scaloni, coach of the Argentine team, to take into account the Brazilian soccer striker, there was never a call for a friendly, let alone for an official match.
“If someone ever spoke to me about the Argentine team? No, I never spoke to anyone. There was a lot of press here in Brazil and even there in Argentina, but there never was for the national team. It could have been on the list of 55 for the national team, right?” Cano told the Brazilian outlet. globoesporte in an interview he gave weeks ago.
However, Cano confessed that he will travel to the World Cup in Qatar this weekend. Although he will experience the World Cup from the stands, as one of the thousands of compatriots who will be in Doha.
“Being able to go to enjoy the World Cup will be a new experience, I have never been to a World Cup. For the first time I will have the opportunity to enjoy with my family, being able to watch the matches of Argentina and Brazil. It will be a beautiful thing,” she commented.
Fluminense has just renewed Germán Ezequiel Cano’s contract until 2025, ensuring the Argentine striker until he is 37 years old.
