Overview
- The FPF released a 26-player list for November with a clear renewal goal, highlighted by 1. FC Nürnberg defender Fabio Gruber’s first senior call-up.
- Five prospects were invited as sparrings to train with the group: César Bautista, Philipp Eisele, Rafael Guzmán, Francesco Andrealli and Jair Moretti.
- Returns include forward Yordy Reyna, currently with Rodina Moscow, with Pedro Gallese also recalled to the goalkeeping group.
- Peru faces Russia on November 12 at Gazprom Arena in Saint Petersburg, then meets Chile on November 18 at Fisht Stadium in Sochi.
- Forward Luis Ramos was omitted from the list, with conflicting reports on whether it was the coach’s decision or a player request, as Russia prepares under Valery Karpin with an expanded 39-man pool.
