International career

He was called up for Ecuador U20 to play at the 2017 South American U20 Championship and 2017 FIFA U20 World Cup, but he didn't play any match. So, after his nationalization by permanent residency according to Chilean law, he decided to play for Chile national team.[6]

He played four matches for Chile U23 at the 2020 Pre-Olympic Tournament, but Chile didn't advance to the second stage. He was later called up for a training microcycle by Chile national team's coach, Reinaldo Rueda.[7]

He received his first call up to the Chile senior team to play the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification matches against Uruguay and Colombia on 8 and 13 October 2020 respectively,[8] but he didn't make his international debut at senior level.

Personal life

He is son of Wilson Carabalí, a former Ecuadorian international footballer,[9] and brother of Wilson Carabalí Jr., who came to Chile along with him looking for an opportunity in Chilean football too. Also, his father is cousin of former Ecuadorian international footballer Héctor Carabalí.[10]
