Gignac injured, Martino to call another foreigner to El Tri, not Furch

Gerado Martino continues to refine his roster for Qatar 2022. The main problem is the lack of goals scored by the Mexican team in recent months. Local talent is no longer the solution and Martino wants another foreigner. With Gignac injured and Furch ruled out, Tata seems to have found the ideal candidate.

Gignac's injury is one of the most worrying losses for Tigres. In addition to this, it also comes as a bucket of cold water for Martino, who was actually studying the possibility of the Frenchman playing for Mexico with FIFA's approval. Now, the injury opens the possibility for another player. 

According to a report by Reacción en Cadena, the Argentinean coach is looking to bring in another foreign striker, so that he can contribute in an area where the Mexican team has lacked a lot. As if that were not enough, he is also a player who would contribute in the short and long term due to his age.

Which striker is Martino considering for the national team?

The striker Martino has opted for is Luca Martínez Dupuy, a player who plays in the Argentine League. He is Mexican and could be an important offensive player for the Mexican team on the road to Qatar 2022.
