Celtic star Alexander Bernabei is reportedly in line for a shock international call-up for world champions Argentina.The 22-year-old signed in a £3.75 million move from Lanus last summer and has acted as back-up to Scotland defender Greg Taylor for most if the season, but has still managed 17 appearances so far this season as he helped Ange Postecoglou's claim the Scottish Premiership side.
He has netted one goal so far in his Parkhead career - but the strike last month against Ross County saw Bernabei make history as the become the first-ever Argentinian to score for Celtic.Now, according to reports in the South American country, Bernabei is being considered for their summer tour to Asia by World Cup-winning manager Lionel Scaloni where they are set to face Indonesia and China.
The boss reportedly wants to use players with less international experience for the trip, with the title winner being consider for his first call up.The World Cup winners begin their qualification campaign for the 2026 tournament in September and Scaloni is reportedly set to choose a younger squad for their summer mini-tour.
Bernabei has received a lot of attention in his homeland since his move to Scottish football and has come through the international ranks for the national side.He has been capped for both the Argentina's Under 19s and Under 23s.
