International Career

Bentancur competed for Uruguay’s under-20 national team, which won the 2017 South American U-20 Championship. Additionally, the group placed fourth at the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

For the team’s upcoming 2018 World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Bolivia in October, manager Carlos Tabárez gave Bentancur his first senior call-up to the Uruguay national team in September 2017. On October 5, he made his debut for his country after substituting during Uruguay’s 0-0 away tie with Venezuela. In March 2018, he was selected for the team to compete in the China Cup.

Bentancur was included to Uruguay’s preliminary 26-man roster for the FIFA World Cup in Russia in May 2018. Later, he was a part of the team’s final 23-man roster for the competition. He participated in Uruguay’s 1-0 victory over Egypt in the tournament opener on June 15 at the Yekaterinburg Arena. On June 30, during the Round of 16 game against Portugal, he assisted Edinson Cavani in scoring his second goal, giving Uruguay a 2-1 victory.

Bentancur was a member of Tabárez’s final 23-man Uruguay squad for the 2019 Copa América in Brazil in March 2019. After ordinary time ended with a 0-0 tie in the quarterfinal match against Peru on June 29, the game went to a penalty shootout; despite Bentancur’s successful kick, Uruguay lost the shootout 4-5 and were eliminated from the competition.

Style Of Play

Bentancur has been described as a tall and “physically strong” player who is capable of playing in any midfield position, including as a defensive midfielder, a central midfielder, a winger on either flank, in a box-to-box role, or even as a mezzala, or as an attacking midfielder behind the forwards, due to his ability to make attacking runs from either foot. Bentancur is dynamic, hard-working, skillful, elegant,

While in possession, he also has good close control, technique, and quick footwork that help him get past opponents. In addition, he has vision, intelligence, personality, and incisive passing that help him set the pace of his team’s play as a regista deep in the middle of the field and help his teammates score goals after winning the ball back. He has even occasionally played as a second striker thanks to his height and muscular body, which also allow him to serve as a “target man” in an advanced midfield position.

He is a mobile player who is capable of pressuring opponents further up the field, despite his unimpressive acceleration. Additionally, he has received media acclaim for his poise and quick thinking both with and without the ball. He is regarded as a very promising young player in the media because of his precociousness, talent, maturity, and wide range of skills.
