Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez has opted to replace the injured Cristian Rodriguez with uncapped Diego Laxalt in his Copa America squad.
Diego Laxalt has been called up as a replacement for Cristian Rodriguez in Uruguay's Copa America Centenario squad.
Experienced winger Rodriguez, who plays his club football for Independiente, is suffering from a problem with scar tissue.
According to Uruguay's medical staff, there is no certainty the 30-year-old will recover in time to participate in the competition.
As a consequence, Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez has selected the uncapped Laxalt, who joined Inter in 2013 but is yet to make a Serie A appearance for the Nerazzurri, going on loan to Bologna, Empoli and most recently Genoa.
