He is not a Televisa scholarship holder, he is a star in the Premier League but will not go to the World Cup with El Tri

In the Mexican national team and for all aspiring players, it is extremely essential to have a sponsor to be able to grow and position themselves at the top for possible call-ups. Such is the case of this Premier League player who might not go because he lacks such external support.

For Gerardo Martino, the list is complete and there are elements that according to him, are better, such as Henry Martin, Rogelio Funes Mori or Raul Jimenez, reason why he will not take this player even though he is extremely important in the Premier League Newscastle United.

He challenged Martino and made a fool of him, now he vetoes him from El Tri and the World Cup

Goodbye Ochoa, Marquez would take him to Barcelona and he would be the new goalkeeper at El Tri, he is not David Ochoa

This seems to be the destiny of Santiago Muñoz, an element of the Mexican team who ended up signing for Newcastle United and who already did the preseason with the first team. However, despite having a promising future with the club, Martino will care little if no orders come from above.

Why would Munoz not make it to Qatar 2022?

The issue is that Gerardo Martino, in a press conference, communicated that it will be very difficult for any player to be taken for him if he has not been part of his process at some point in his career. In this case, Santiago Muñoz has not been called up yet and his participation in the World Cup will be complicated.
