Last Saturday, the Mexican gave a masterclass in how to start an MLS 2022 campaign, having massacred the Colorado Rapids with a 3-0 score. After this great match, many El Tri fans are wondering if the player will return to the team.

And the question stems from the doubts that the Mexican team has generated among its followers due to its lack of strength, as it is not the leader of the Concacaf World Cup Qualifiers, in which it barely defeated Jamaica with a score of 1-2 and Panama with a score of 1-0.

But they were unable to beat Costa Rica, with whom they drew 0-0, despite having played at the Azteca Stadium.

This was Carlos Vela's hat-trick in LAFC's debut against Colorado Rapids

The Mexican's first goal came from a penalty kick, provoked by a handball in the Colorado Rapids' area, who could not see how to respond to Carlos Vela and his team's onslaught.

The second goal, on the other hand, came as a result of a brilliant play by the Mexican, when he received a deep pass and controlled the ball with all the calmness in the world, despite having resisted the attacks of Lalas Abubakar. 

The Mexican's third goal was a stroke of genius, as with a shot from outside the box, the Mexican finished massacring the Rapids, who were never able to find themselves on the field. 

Has Gerardo Martino already sought Carlos Vela to return to the Mexican national soccer team?

This is undoubtedly the question of the moment since Mexico's upcoming World Cup Qualifying matches will include what is undoubtedly its most-awaited and most complicated match: against the USMNT. 

And given that Vela has already shown that North American teams do not scare him, it would be a great help if the player were to return to El Tri.

And what many people don't know is that Gerardo Martino has already approached the Mexican player to ask him about his possible return to the national team and that the Mexican was quite emphatic in his response to the Argentinean tactician. 

What did Carlos Vela say to Gerardo Martino about his possible return to the Mexican national soccer team?

The Mexican national team coach spoke to the LAFC striker to make the request, but Vela's response was blunt.

According to Martino, the conversation with Vela went like this:

"(Vela) He told me that he preferred to give priority to both his club and his family, and then the situation practically ended at that moment. And I think that for a person as thoughtful as Carlos, who is very clear about what he wants to do, it is very important to define it calmly and above all to be consistent with his ideas. It seems to me that he has been permanently so in his career."

Therefore, it is very complicated for the Mexican player to return to the Mexican national team, which undoubtedly needs a player of his level to secure the Concacaf World Cup Qualifiers.
