The Atlas striker is looking forward to giving back to the country what he has given in terms of work and family and does not think about taking a position so as not to be criticized like Rogelio Funes Mori.

"It has happened a lot here in Mexico and there have been many players who have done very well in the national team, although there are many people who criticize him (Funes Mori) there are also many people who support him, I try to help from my side, if I have to be in the national team tomorrow, I will help Mexico", he said. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has moved the plans and delayed the process, which is expected to be over soon. 

"I still don't have the paper, I'm still in the process, it has taken a long time, I'm trying to put pressure everywhere to get it and hopefully I can get it soon to continue doing things well on the field and if I get it, welcome and if not I will continue working for Atlas and continue doing things well," he added. 

Will Chicharito return to El Tri?

Javier Hernandez found the net again on Wednesday night in LA Galaxy's 3-1 victory over LAFC in the round of 16 of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup, and after the match, Chicharito accepted that there had already been an approach with the Mexican National Team for a possible return.

"Yes, there were approaches," Javier confirmed when questioned by the media, but without going into further details.

Chicharito, who is the top scorer of the Mexican National Team, has not been called up again by Gerardo 'Tata' Martino since September 2019 due to alleged internal problems between the striker and the tactician.

The president of the Mexican Federation, Yon de Luisa, said on Wednesday that for Hernandez to be called up to fight for a place at the World Cup in Qatar, depended on the talk between Hernandez and Martino. The Mexican national team will play against Nigeria next Saturday and Chicharito was not called-up.
