Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez has cut short his call-up with Argentina’s national squad in order to focus on making a comeback against Brentford.
The Argentine was a surprise addition to Lionel Scaloni’s squad after having missed the last six weeks of action due to a knee injury.
The Daily Mail reports that the defender now has cut short his call-up and will return to England on Saturday as he steps up his bid to make a comeback against Brentford.
The 26-year-old trained with his Argentina teammates this week, but decided to return to England in order to prepare fully for a return next Saturday, March 30.
Martinez will now be training at United’s Carrington base this and next week.
