Rogelio Funes Mori received excellent news

On the current FIFA date, Mexico is touring Europe, where on Saturday they faced Wales (they lost by the smallest difference by 1-0) and this Tuesday they will play in Austria against Costa Rica, in what will be the closing of the friendlies. For these commitments, the national coach Gerardo Martino had in mind to cite Rogelio Funes Mori, since Raúl Jiménez wasn't going to be available due to injury. However, the Argentine forward did not finish the nationalization papers, which is why he could not be summoned. And in the last hours, related to this issue, he received excellent news. 

According to the information published by ESPN Digital on Monday, Rogelio Funes Mori will finish his naturalization process in the course of next April. In other words, over the next few weeks, the Rayados of Monterrey element would already be eligible to play with El Tri.

"The moment they tell me that a player not born in Mexico can be summoned, I will take it into account. But, in the meantime, it seems to me an unnecessary energy expenditure to talk about the subject", was the phrase that Gerardo Martino launched in conversation with W Deportes when the Argentine did not have his papers ready.
