Paredes provides Scaloni with a like-for-like alternative to Enzo Fernández as a deep-lying midfielder. He’s unlikely to start ahead of the Chelsea man but offers value as a closing-out substitute or a starter against opposition where set-piece delivery matters more than pace.

Strengths

Set-piece delivery — particularly direct free kicks from 20-25 yards
Tempo control from deep midfield
Veteran reading of the game in tight moments

Recent form

Boca Juniors captain through the 2025-26 Argentine season.

Holds Boca Juniors' record for the longest-distance free-kick goal in the post-2000 Superclásico era.
