Sanchez considers him the Mexican Messi and prefers him to play for El Tri instead of Funes

Hugo Sanchez has been highly critical of the Mexican national team. The former Real Madrid player and Mexican soccer legend cannot stand certain profiles within the team. In this case, he has already lashed out against Rogelio Funes Mori, assuring that he is too much for the team.

Sanchez believes that Mexico needs a player with the differential characteristics of a true "10" on the field. In that case, he believes that the only player who fulfills this requirement is Carlos Vela, whom he considers the "Mexican Messi".
