Lisandro Martinez and Cristian Romero left stranded from international duty with Argentina

Lisandro Martinez and Cristian Romero have both been left stranded from the Argentina squad ahead of two friendlies due to visa issues caused by the mourning of Queen Elizabeth II.

The 24-year-old Manchester United defender was set to travel out to Miami for their game against Honduras in the early hours of Saturday morning, before they face Jamaica four days later. They are facing their penultimate two matches before the World Cup starts in November, with Argentina facing Saudi Arabia in their first group game.

However, Martinez and Tottenham counterpart Romero have both been left in limbo with the defenders prevented from travelling over to the United States as the US Embassy in England has been closed, according to TyC Sports.
