The Argentinean men’s national team begin preparations for the 2021 FIVB Volleyball Nations League on Monday with 17 players called up to work under head coach Marcelo Mendez at the country’s training facility in Buenos Aires.

The list of players includes young athletes who stood out in the 2020-2021 Argentinean League, which ended with UPCN Voley’s eighth victory. Two veterans who have already completed their club seasons in Turkey are also featured in opposite Bruno Lima and outside hitter Cristian Poglajen.
