LA PAZ, Oct. 24 (Xinhua) -- Bolivia head coach Cesar Farias has recalled three foreign-based players for friendlies against Chile and Panama, the South American country's football federation said on Thursday.

Midfielder Danny Bejarano (Lamia, Greece), playmaker Alejandro Chumacero (Puebla, Mexico) and forward Henry Vaca (Universitario, Peru) all return after missing Bolivia's victory over Haiti (3-1) and defeat to Venezuela (4-1) in friendlies this month.

Bolivia will visit Chile for a friendly in Concepcion on November 15 before facing Panama, also away, four days later.

The Verde are currently 75th in the FIFA rankings while Panama are 80th and Chile 17th.

Farias named three goalkeepers, eight defenders, eight midfielders and six forwards in his squad for the friendlies, which will be his last chance to test players in match conditions before the South American zone's World Cup qualifiers begin next March.

Following is the Bolivia squad:

Goalkeepers: Jorge Arauz (Royal Pari), Daniel Vaca (The Strongest), Romel Quinonez (Oriente Petrolero).

Defenders: Gabriel Valverde and Jose Sagredo (The Strongest), Julio Cesar Perez and Carlos Anez (Oriente Petrolero), Adrian Jusino and Oscar Ribera (Bolivar), Jefferson Ibanez (Guabira) and Guimer Justiniano (Royal Pari).

Midfielders: Leonel Justiniano and Fernando Saucedo (Wilstermann), Paul Arano and Erwin Sanchez (Blooming), Danny Bejarano (Lamia), Erwin Saavedra (Bolivar), Jhasmany Campos and Alejandro Chumacero (Puebla).

Forwards: Rodrigo Ramallo and Carlos Saucedo (San Jose), Gilbert Alvarez (Wilstermann), Henry Vaca (Universitario), Juan Carlos Arce (Bolivar) and Carmelo Algaranaz (Always Ready). Enditem
