One of the first conditions that André-Pierre Gignac would have within the Mexican national team process is that all his rights are respected, just like any other player, that is to say, that he enjoys the privileges in terms of prizes and royalties for going to the World Cup.

However, the process would have to be evaluated by FIFA, which must receive a letter of resignation from André-Pierre Gignac to the French national team and subsequently request his inclusion in the Mexican team.

What prevents Gignac from playing for Mexico in the World Cup in Qatar?

One of the points to be evaluated by the Mexican Football Federation and FIFA is to know if the player is eligible, taking into consideration that he participated in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games with the French national team and, according to the regulations, he must at least not have been a member of such national team for three years.
