Tottenham Hotspur ace has a vital role to play for Colombia.
Tottenham Hotspur defender Davinson Sanchez is in Colombia training with his national team ahead of a crucial round of fixtures.
Colombia are locked in a battle to qualify for the 2018 World Cup in the intensely competitive Conmebol rankings.
Brazil have already qualified, but the rest of the spots are up for grabs with five teams separated by four points.
Colombia sit third behind Uruguay, while Argentina are in fifth ahead of Chile and both risk missing out on next summer’s tournament.
Sanchez’s Colombia host seventh placed Paraguay on Friday evening, before visiting surprise package Peru, who sit in fourth position.
Colombia are unbeaten in their last four fixtures heading into this week’s games, with Sanchez nullifying PSG ace Neymar in a recent draw against leaders Brazil.
