Why doesn’t Martino summon Ormeño?

“As national team coaches we have in mind all the players in the MX League and Ormeño is one more of them. What we do is we observe the whole facet of a player during a game, we do not go for a player who has five or six goals, We also go for your participation within the game. We look at how it integrates into the game circuit and see if it’s just a finisher, ”Tata said in an interview with The sports.

Tata will call up Raúl Jiménez even if he does not play

The Tata confirmed that Raúl Jiménez will be called up for the FIFA Date only to train for a week, just as he did Andrés Guardado in November, When he went with the Tri to Austria to do his rehab.

On the other hand, Martino is expected to Hirving Lozano he may already have minutes this weekend when Napoli face Roma in the Serie A.
