He rejected Messi and regretted it, now he asks for a space after running out of the World Cup
He preferred another country, they did not take him into account for the World Cup and he would wait for an opportunity from Scaloni
There is very little left for the ball to roll in the World Cup in Qatar, where the Argentine team starts as a favorite and in the group stage they will have to face Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland. Now, a player who rejected the country, is sorry and would ask for a chance after being left out of the event that will take place in the Middle East.
This is Santiago Gimenez. The forward born in Argentina, but who preferred to represent Mexico, was left out of the World Cup by Gerardo Martino's decision. Despite the fact that he scores goals in Europe, "Tata" preferred to exclude him from the final list and now "Chaquito" is sorry for having made the decision to play for ‘El Tri’.

After being champion with Cruz Azul, huge and historic Mexican club, the son of Cristian Giménez (former player of Boca Juniors), migrated to the Netherlands. Feyenoord was his next destination, where he has been fantastic, although some Mexican fans were saying it was too soon for him to go to Europe.
Although Santiago Gimenez is not a regular starter, he already has four goals in the Europa League, nobody has more goals than him in that competition. Despite this, Tata Martino, who lost two Copa América finals with Argentina, turned his back on him and did not call him.
Is there a possibility that he will represent Argentina in the future?
After Mexico's refusal, Giménez would look for an opportunity in the current champion of America. Since he hasn't played category A games for El Tri, the striker could still represent the Albiceleste. However, the decision to summon him belongs to Lionel Scaloni, who has Lautaro Martínez and Julián Álvarez as his attack references.
