Argentina Stars Hire Security After World Cup Win Over England

Following Argentina’s triumph over England in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, two Argentine players engaged private security companies to protect their residences in the UK.

The Sun claims that Alexis Mac Allister, a midfielder for Liverpool, and Lisandro Martinez, a defender for Manchester United, are the two players.

Following Argentina’s thrilling World Cup victory over England, the couple had security on patrol at their homes for two days.

The report added that no attempts were made to vandalise the properties of Martinez or Mac Allister.

It will be recalled that Argentina came from behind to defeat England 2-1 in the World Cup semi-final clash at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

Martinez vows to make Garnacho commit his international future to Argentina and not Spain

Lisandro Martinez has said that there is no chance Manchester United team-mate Alejandro Garnacho will choose the Spain national team over Argentina.

Garnacho, who burst onto the scene under coach Erik ten Hag this season, was born in Spain and spent part of his youth career with Getafe and Atletico Madrid before moving to United. He represented the Spain Under-18s but then featured for the Argentina U20s and while he has been called up to the senior squad for their upcoming matches against Panama and Curacao, he is still free to choose between the two national teams.

Garnacho is eligible to represent Argentina due to his mother being Argentine, but the Red Devils winger has not made a senior appearance in his international career.

Martinez has however said that there is no chance of Garnacho turning out for La Roja. He told TyC Sports:

“The truth is that Garna is an excellent boy, with a lot of personality because he is 18 years old and is starting in a very big team and with a lot of pressure, you have to have personality, right? That’s what I like about him, he’s going to play headline or enters 10, 15 minutes and gives the best of him.

“[Garnacho] is with me here, forget about it. I’ll make sure [he plays for Argentina]. The only way is to go there with me.”
