Crespo Back in Argentina Squad for Bolivia and Colombia Games

Argentina coach Alfio Basile has recalled Hernan Crespo to the national squad for the upcoming qualifiers against Bolivia and Colombia.

Crespo has missed the last three squads due to the injury he picked up during the Copa America, but Basile has been quick to call on the striker now that he has returned to full fitness.

Crespo's inclusion means that Javier Saviola has been dropped out of the squad. Also missing are Getafe pair Oscar Ustari and Daniel Diaz, and Mallorca midfielder Jonas Gutierrez, who is currently injured.

Juan Riquelme is again included in the squad, despite having not played a competitive club match since the summer.
