Uruguay to Train in Kolkata Ahead of India Friendly Without Federico Valverde
Uruguay will hold a five-day training camp in Kolkata ahead of their October 6 friendly against India, but star midfielder Federico Valverde will miss the trip due to a grade 3 ankle sprain sustained in a recent Madrid derby. Uruguay arrives on September 30, a day before Brazil, who will also play India in a friendly at Salt Lake Stadium. Both teams face injury setbacks, with Brazil missing João Pedro and Uruguay without Valverde. Uruguay's squad includes several key players under new coach Diego Forlán.
