Cambiasso eagerly anticipates playing for the Albiceleste every time, and is proud to don the jersey.

"I always await a call to the national team because it is the important thing as a footballer," the 29-year-old told Telam, as quoted by Novantesimo.it.

"Even when you don't receive the call-up, every Argentinean player feels a part of this side.

"Our nation has great players, and it is not easy to find a spot.

"I wish to always do well, and I will continue to train hard, and play my best.

"I will show on the field what I can do," the Nerazzurri defensive midfielder summed up.
