Enzo Perez has been chosen to join the Argentina squad rather than Mauro Icardi or Diego Perotti as a replacement for Manuel Lanzini.

The team is preparing for the 2018 World Cup, but lost West Ham United trequartista Lanzini to injury this week in training.

Options to step in included Inter hitman Icardi and Roma veteran Perotti.

However, Coach Jorge Sampaoli has officially chosen Enzo Perez to replace him.

Perez is a 32-year-old attacking midfielder who left Valencia for River Plate last summer.
