Aleksanjans earns another Latvia call-up ahead of Armenia clash

Latvia have announced their squad for November’s matches against Armenia and Montenegro. Alberts Aleksanjans, the 20-year-old winger from Swedish club IFK Norrköping, has once again been included in the 25-man selection.

Aleksanjans heads into the international fixtures on the back of a productive run at club level. In his last five appearances for Norrköping, he has scored four goals and provided two assists, registering a goal or an assist in every match.
