Nicolas Lodeiro‘s influence on the Uruguay national team may be waning a bit — he didn’t play in either of the most recent World Cup qualifiers — but he’ll be called up again in October. Lodeiro was named to the 26-man roster for matches against Venezuela (Oct. 5) and Bolivia (Oct. 10).
Neither match should conflict with the Seattle Sounders’ schedule, who have games on Oct. 1 (at the Philadelphia Union) and Oct. 15 (vs. FC Dallas).
Those will be the final two matches of CONMEBOL’s qualifying process and Uruguay is currently second in the table.
