He will also participate in the Copa América before the Olympics. Benfica has not yet made a decision on whether to allow Otamendi to participate in the Olympics.

Nicolas Otamendi is expected to receive clearance from Benfica for participation. The Argentine delegation is working with the English company for clearance, as was the case for the former Manchester City center.

Nicolas Otamendi, who is currently playing for Benfica, is expected to get approval from his club to participate in the Olympic tournament in Paris this summer. He has expressed his desire to take part in the tournament in the past few months.
