Tevez has been unlucky to miss out on the Argentina Copa America squad

One of the most popular strikers in his home country Argentina, Carlos Tevez will not be making the trip to USA to represent his nation in the Copa America Centenario. Argentina are blessed with a number of attacking options and the fact that he moved to Boca Juniors from Juventus counted against the former Manchester City frontman.
Tevez is 32 years old and this snub might indicate the end of his long international career for Argentina. The Boca Juniors striker has made 76 international appearances for the Albiceleste and his discipline, heart, dedication, determination and undoubted abilities will definitely be missed by Tata Martino.
One of the main reason for Tevez’s exclusion has been the abundance of talent in the forward position for Argentina with many talented forwards like Aguero, Lamela and Higuain ready to fill the void left by Tevez’s absence.
