There is news that they never wanted to give, much less live through complicated moments, but finally after Jaime Lozano and his coaching staff They chose the five players that were left out the Copa América 2024, The same Tricolor strategist and the captain of the national team, Edson Álvarez, tried to soften this hard moment for Jordan Carrillo from Santos Laguna, Fernando Beltrán from Chivas, Alexis Peña from Chivas, Andrés Montaño from Mazatlán and Víctor Guzmán from Monterrey.

The five players after receiving the hard news, especially Alexis Peña and Fernando Beltrán, who were thought to make the cut and the chosen ones would be Bryan González and Marcelo Flores, received an emotional message from the coach and the captain of the national team, urging them not to give up and continue fighting for a new call for the September call-up.

They are decisions that hurt, but you are still with us. 🫂🇲🇽

Thank you for the commitment and dedication always with the team, Alexis Peña, Jordan Carrillo, Andrés Montaño, Fernando Beltrán and Víctor Guzmán. 💚 pic.twitter.com/tQ9bEJDeVR

Lozano told them that: “I have always said it: it is the most difficult thing; For me, in my profession, it is the most difficult thing, leaving people out. I know there will be players left out, but they will be left out of the Copa América”, not about the process, the players also have to be clear about that, that we will take a few days to evaluate many things and we will try to define in the best way, it is ready,” were the words of Jaime Lozano about the players who will not be in “the summer contest.”

The national coach also told the players that: “Thank you all, all the dedication, all the effort, all the dedication that we have put in these days, but telling them that it is not a ‘I’m out of the process’ simply that we can go 26, that if we can go 31 we would all go together, it is very likely that if these five people continue doing the same thing that they demonstrated here and with their club it is very likely that In September, October or November they will be here again.”

While Edson Álvarez was more direct and aware that at that moment his teammates were not even warmed by the sun due to his withdrawal from the Mexico team for the 2024 Copa América: “Perhaps for those who were left out, these words are worth it, because it really is, it is one more challenge for each of you and to continue demonstrating because if you are here it is for a reason, here will always be your home and we will welcome you with the Open arms, it is not easy to be here, so thank you for sharing these moments and I have no doubt that we are going to continue seeing each other and then fuck him.”
