The reasons why Gerardo Martino thinks it was a mistake for Diego Lainez to leave Club America

Diego Lainez decided to continue his career at Real Betis even though he does not have minutes and is a substitute for most of the games. That is a complication when it comes to being more of a leading player in the Mexican national team and that is why Gerardo Martino gave his point of view about why it was a bad decision to have left Club America early.

For the coach of the Mexican national team, Lainez left Liga MX early as he was not even consolidated in his team. Although he showed that he is an excellent player, he did not adapt to what high-level professional football is. For Martino, Lainez had to wait another year to go to Betis.

Gerardo Martino has a lot of hope in Diego Lainez as he considers him one of the most important players of the Mexican team looking to the future. The young Mexican player was compared to Lionel Messi and even many already call him the Mexican Messi. This pressure to be the best and not have minutes may be playing against Lainez.

Finally, Martino said that if Lainez does not have many minutes at Real Betis today, it is precisely because of the other reason that he explained about the lack of adaptation in Liga MX. Club America did not get to enjoy Diego Lainez as much as Martino would have liked, but the fans can now do it with the Mexican team.
