Raúl Jiménez has a replacement in the Mexican national team

Next Saturday, March 27, in Cardiff, the Mexican team will face Wales in a friendly as part of the FIFA Date. Three days later, in Austria, Gerardo Martino's cast will play against Costa Rica, closing their European tour. For these matches, the coach will not be able to count on Raúl Jiménez, one of his main figures. For this reason, El Tata already has his replacement.

On Saturday night, Monterrey beat Querétaro 2-1, in a new round of Guard1anes 2021. To make that possible, Rogelio Funes Mori once again demonstrated all his scoring power by scoring twice. And this performance of the Twin didn't go unnoticed by the national coach, who will summon him to play the next commitments. Of course, for this to be possible, Ramiro's brother (who plays for Villarreal and dreams of representing Argentina again) has to achieve Mexican nationalization, something that he has been processing for a long time.

The Argentine-born forward is already accelerating the process to become a Mexican national and, in fact, the process will culminate in this month of March. In other words, if everything goes according to what is stipulated, this month he could have his first call to Tri on the FIFA date.

Will he play as a starter? Funes Mori, if summoned, would benefit since José Juan Macías, Chivas de Guadalajara player, will be part of the Mexican Pre-Olympic list that will play the qualifying tournament on the same date as the friendlies against Wales and Costa Rica, reason enough for the attacker de Monterrey has its premiere in a big way.
