The coach has selected two inexperienced strikers in Uruguay's squad as the nation bids to retain the Copa America title.
Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez has named two inexperienced strikers in his 27-man preliminary squad for the Copa America as he aims to make up for the absence of Luis Suarez.
Barcelona forward Suarez will miss the tournament because of the nine-match international suspension he received for biting Italy's Giorgio Chiellini at last year's World Cup.
Paris Saint-Germain's Edinson Cavani is likely to shoulder the goal-scoring burden for the defending champions in Suarez's absence, but Tabarez has also offered Bordeaux's Diego Rolan and Jonathan Rodriguez — on loan at Benfica from Penarol — the chance to impress.
