After the decision of Alejandro Zendejas as a player for the United States team, leaving behind the idea of playing for the Mexican team, there have been several criteria that have been given about what position Club América will take, owner of the pass for the Mexican striker and that its owner, Emilio Azcárraga, also belongs to the National Teams Committee.

In the past, a similar event occurred in Chivas with striker Hérculez Gómez, who despite having the chance to play for the Mexican team, decided to opt for the United States team. After this, Jorge Vergara, at that time the owner of Chivas, decided not to sign the striker of the moment in Liga MX who had emerged champion with Santos Laguna.

“At that time, the press also began to talk that in order for me to reach Chivas, I had to give up playing for the United States National Team. In no way was he willing to do it. I had just participated in a World Cup and I wanted to get to play my second World Cup. Although the illusion of playing in a big team in Mexico existed, it was not big enough to give up the national team and not be able to be in another World Cup, ”Hérculez Gómez commented at the time for ESPN.

Now the same situation could be experienced by Alejandro Zendejas, who is a member of America, but has his family in the United States and was raised with the North American culture. Now, after making the decision to play for the United States, he could change the reality of him in the cream-blue box. Although Santiago Baños has confessed that they will support Zendejas' decision, the player would have some obstacles, acknowledges W Deportes Radio.
