Chile coach Marcelo Bielsa has omitted defender Roberto Cereceda from his final 23-man squad for the World Cup.
Cereceda was included in the initial squad as cover for Universidad de Chile midfielder Marco Estrada, who has since proven his fitness.
The final squad named Tuesday, which is dominated by European-based players, includes Real Zaragoza forward Humberto Suazo, who has been reported in various media as having suffered a hamstring injury in training this week.
Bielsa reduced his 30-man squad to 25 players last month, before further paring it back with the omission of striker Hector Mancilla shortly after.
