The player was called up, however, the Tri is clear that they will not count on him for next week’s matches.
Gerardo Martino made its list of names, in which it included a Raúl Jiménez, But sources close to the Mexican selection confirmed that he points out at the time for ESPN Digital, That the player was not loaned by Wolverhampton of England, so the Tri will concentrate with only two center forwards: Rogelio Funes Mori and Henry Martin.
It was told this portal that despite the request for Raúl Jiménez was sent in time and form to the Wolves, the board of the Premier League gave a strong refusal, given the existing agreement not to release players by matches in countries included in the red list of the United Kingdom for the next international shutdown.
The above, based on the fact that according to the guidelines of the government of that European nation, anyone returning from a red list country must be quarantined for 10 full days, which means that players could lose several games with their clubs.
The name of Raúl Jiménez appeared on the list “because it was already done and for some reason they didn’t want to take it out of it, but they won’t let it come,” it was said.
This way, Gerardo Martino will stay with Funes Mori and Martin, since at the time Alan Pulido’s application was not made to Sporting Kansas City and if they wanted to apply at that time, they would not be loaned, as long as to apply to an MLS player they will have to do so 15 days in advance.
It is not ruled out that the cruzazulino Santiago Giménez, Who was called up to the Under-21 National Team, which concentrates next Monday, could occupy a last-minute place with the Tri of the ‘Tata’ Martino in case of an eventuality.
It should be noted that Mexico he would be calm and without much worry, despite not being able to count on Raúl Jiménez, As Jamaica, his September 2 rival, would be most affected by the deal in the UK, as it has nine players with dual nationality playing in the Premier League.
Finally, this portal was also addressed to the Wolverhampton, Where a spokesman confirmed that the board has no plans to lend the player “for the time being”.
