Tri’s scoring drought points directly to the lack of gunpowder in the Mexican forwards. That is why public opinion and analysts question the possible return of Javier “Chicharito” Hernández , whom Gerardo “Tata” Martino has not summoned the Mexican National Team since 2019.

Given the controversy that exists around the subject, ESPN decided to talk with the current president of the Mexican Soccer Federation , Yon de Luisa, on the matter.

The boss of the The federation commented that the calls of the Argentine Martino have the backing of the entity that organizes national team football in the Aztec country, so there are no interferences or vetoes of any player. “ The calls are from the coaching staff and endorsed by the sports director , Gerardo Torrado, and for the presidency, for a server. In that sense, what the ‘Tata’ decides has our blessing. ”

De Luisa commented that it is not the first time that stories and controversies have been generated regarding certain players who could be called up to Tri. In this way, the president was blunt: “As for Javier and the stories with Layún and other players that have been discussed in the past, the reality is that in the Mexican Soccer Federation there are no vetoes, there are no vetoed players . I don’t know a player who has that stigma under his belt. ”

To end his interview with the American sports news network, Yon de Luisa endorsed Martino’s management : “I am convinced that each and every one of the calls, the ‘Tata’ thinks that they are the best for the National Team and if Javier has not been included in these calls, there will be his sports reasons of the ‘Tata’ not to summon him. And I repeat, they have the full support of ‘Tata’ and me. ”
