Not even with Lionel Messi, it is revealed how Martino truncates the World Cup for Gimenez

The situation of the Mexican national team is in a critical state prior to the 2022 World Cup. The injured players are not fully recovered, but the coach insists on them until the last moment. The absence of Tecatito Corona, who could not finish recovering from his injury, was confirmed today. In addition, the case of Raul Jimenez does not look good.

Santiago Gimenez is one of Mexico's most in-form strikers. The striker recently migrated to European soccer and is already one of the key players for Feyenoord in the current season where he is the top scorer of his team in the UEFA Europa League. Despite his performances, Martino has not been able to determine his place in the Mexican national team.

Now, the worst news comes for the young striker after Gerardo Martino assured in a press conference that Raul Gimenez will be in Qatar 2022 and they will wait until the last minute for him to make the trip with the team. For this reason, Gimenez would not have many minutes or could even be discarded in the final cut.

Gerardo Martino's dilemma seems to continue and not end until the starting whistle blows in Qatar 2022. In that sense, the coach seems to establish that the position is between Henry Martin or Rogelio Funes Mori. If he recovers, the starting striker has always been Raul Jimenez. Thus, Santi Gimenez seems to be relegated to the coach's last option.
