Santiago Bueno, the Wolves defender, made a notable appearance for Uruguay in their World Cup qualifying match against Peru. Despite a challenging start to the season for Wolves, Bueno’s performance in the national team has raised hopes for his future contributions.
Facing a tough start to the Premier League season with seven winless matches, Wolves’ manager Gary O’Neil is counting on his players to bounce back for their upcoming game against Manchester City. Bueno, who has only started once in the league this season, is eager to secure a spot in the starting XI after a solid performance in Uruguay’s recent match.
Playing on the left of a back three alongside top players like Manuel Ugarte and Guillermo Varela, Bueno impressed Uruguayan media with his defensive skills and threats going forward. Despite the 1-0 defeat to Peru, Bueno’s performance garnered positive reviews, with media outlets praising his role in the team and his contributions to both defense and attack.
With Bueno’s strong display against Peru, O’Neil has an opportunity to incorporate the defender’s skills into Wolves’ lineup and benefit from his performance in a back three formation. Bueno’s stats from the match highlight his overall contribution to the game, suggesting that there is more to come from the talented defender as Wolves seek to improve their defensive record in the league.
