Armenia U19 to Face Uzbekistan in Friendly Matches

Currently, the team is holding a training camp in Yerevan under the guidance of head coach Misha Djorkaeff. A total of 29 players have been called up to the camp, undergoing assessment and preparing for upcoming official matches. It is likely that by the time of the friendlies against Uzbekistan, the squad will be reinforced with players from foreign clubs.

The upcoming matches against Uzbekistan are expected to help the coaching staff evaluate the team’s current form and finalize the roster for the official games.
