Naturalizing a soccer player to play for Mexico seems to be fashionable within the Mexican Soccer Federation. There are many cases that have occurred in the last year: Rogelio Funes Mori, Julián Araujo, David Ochoa and Marcelo Flores. However, not everyone falls for El Tri’s net; Ricardo Pepi decided to represent the United States and Diego Abreu is between Uruguay and Mexico.
The soccer player of 18 years old has already had the opportunity to participate in modules of the Mexican team. The son of the historic Sebastián “El Loco” Abreu has that dilemma between El Tri and the selection of his father
. Faced with this indecision, the “Charrua” explained what will be the decisive factor to represent one of these countries.

Although it can be thought that this young striker is very influenced by his father, referent of the Uruguayan national team, what is curious is that Diego Abreu sees similarities with Raúl Jiménez himself, above any Uruguayan center forward.
“I feel quite identified with Raúl Jiménez because we are both nine in the area. For example, Raúl is one more who focuses on fixing the two forwards and looking to leave the area when he sees it necessary, that is, he does not spend much time outside the area. On the other hand, Rogelio Funes Mori feels that he is a player who likes to play more outside the area. I see myself more identified with Raúl ”, explained Diego Abreu.
