While Sadio Mane misses out on World Cup, Martino decides Raúl Jiménez's future
While Senegal leaves its star player out due to injury, what Gerardo Martino is doing with Raul Jimenez
One of the worst news for the 2022 World Cup has been confirmed. The Senegalese soccer federation communicated that Sadio Mané will not be in Qatar 2022 after his last medical tests were not the most appropriate. In that sense, the Bayern Munich player already misses the World Cup event.
While this happens, and Senegal is able to dispense with one of the best players in the history of his country, all for not risking it. Gerardo Martino in Mexico continues to insist on Raul Jimenez and his participation in Qatar 2022. The Wolverhampton striker has not yet recovered and Martino has taken him to the World Cup.

In the last match against Sweden, the Mexican striker had minutes of game time, but he was seen to be very out of competitive rhythm and arriving in an extremely conditioned and fair way in certain stretches of the match. For this reason, many fans are complaining about the Argentinean coach's decision to take him and leave Santi Gimenez out.
Will Raul Jimenez start in Qatar?
The Wolverhampton striker will not start from the first minute, at least in the debut against Poland. This is what coach Gerardo Martino said in a press conference after the Mexican team's last match. Martino assured that Jimenez has to be brought in little by little.
