Between cousins, uncles, lifelong friends, and even babies in arms, he put together a group of 34 people who traveled with him to the United States.

Other footballers present in the conversation also shared their numbers: Enzo Fernández brought 12, Lautaro Martínez 14, and Nico Tagliafico 12. But no one came close to Julián, who summed up his decision with a phrase that says it all: “I decided they should all come; they’re the ones who have always been there”. 🇦🇷👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
