Pablo Sabbag was called up by the Syrian national team and will have the opportunity to play in the 2024 Asia Cup. The Alianza Lima forward, a native of Colombia, chose to represent the Middle Eastern team as he saw no possibilities in the ‘Tricolor’.
A few weeks ago, the ‘Sheikh’, through his social networks, made public his decision to represent the Qasyoun Eagles and promised to do his best for the country of his ancestors.
“Dear Syrian fans, it is an honor for me to announce that I am ready to represent the Syrian national team, starting with the Asia Cup, in which I hope we will have good results. “I am very happy because Syria is the country of my ancestors and I feel very honored to represent them,” said Sabbag.
Likewise, a video was also broadcast in which Héctor Cúper, coach of the Syrian national team, refers to the call-up of the ‘blue and white’ player: “Pablo is a new player that we have seen and analyzed. “He can give us a lot,” he mentioned.
