Roger Schmidt will have to deal with a major loss in Benfica's preseason. TyC Sports reported this Tuesday that the Luz club has authorized Nicolás Otamendi to participate in the Olympic Games that will take place this summer.

Journalist Gastón Edul, from TyC Sports, says that Benfica has already informed the Argentine Football Association (AFA) that the Eagles captain can participate in the Olympic football tournament. Julián Álvarez has also been authorized by Manchester City and will be part of the squad led by Javier Mascherano.

It is worth remembering that in the Olympic Games football competition, teams can take three players over 23 years old, a criterion that includes Julián Alvaréz and Benfica's Otamendi.

If this call is confirmed, Otamendi will miss a large part of Benfica's preseason, as the Olympic football tournament will take place between July 24 and August 10.
