Rubén Vargas out of Switzerland squad for Slovenia clash
He joined the camp late after a bout of gastroenteritis and will miss Friday's game in Maribor, returning Monday against Scotland in St. Gallen.
Rubén Vargas, of Sevilla, has been left out of Murat Yakin's Switzerland squad for Friday's game against Slovenia in Maribor, kick-off 20:45. According to ABC, citing Blick, his later arrival at the national team camp weighed heavily in the coach's decision.
Yakin said on Thursday: 'He has not taken part in all the training sessions, and we will see if he is ready tomorrow.' The player delayed his arrival because of gastroenteritis. His season has also been slow: the proposed move to Olympiacos fell through, and he has not had the impact he wanted in the first twelve league rounds.
He will miss five of Switzerland's six Nations League games. His next chance comes on Monday in St. Gallen against Scotland, his first appearance since last summer's World Cup.
