Por más que pataleen sus seguidores, Javier Hernández no estará en el Mundial de Catar. Gerardo Martino lo dejó claro una y otra vez aunque nunca quiso ahondar demasiado en las razones detrás de su exclusión o el veto que tiene a Chicharito alejado de la selección desde 2019.
MADRID — Spain included Barcelona's Ansu Fati but left out Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcantara, Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea and PSG defender Sergio Ramos from their 26-man World Cup squad on Friday.
Fati, now 20, made his international debut in 2020 at 17 and in his second game became the youngest player to score for Spain, breaking a record held since 1925 by Juan Errazquien.
But the forward is fighting his way back from four surgeries to repair an injury to his left knee, suffered in November 2020.
The days are flying and Mexico's debut in the 2022 World Cup is near.
Gerardo Martino will wait until Nov. 14 to announce the final squad for the tournament, but at this point, the core of players that will be facing Argentina, Saudi Arabia and Poland is pretty clear.
So clear that we can already start envisioning the XI we will see in the debut against Poland on Nov. 22.
Goalkeeper: Guillermo Ochoa

England have included in-form Leicester City midfielder James Maddison in their squad for the World Cup in Qatar, with forwards Callum Wilson and Marcus Rashford also selected.
Maddison and Newcastle United striker Wilson have not played for England since 2019, but have been rewarded for fine starts to the domestic season in the run-up to this month's tournament.
Belgium coach Roberto Martínez has included injured striker Romelu Lukaku and playmaker Eden Hazard in his 26-man squad for the World Cup in Qatar, saying he will give the former "every second" to regain his fitness for the tournament.
Lukaku has been suffering with a hamstring injury which, coupled with a thigh problem earlier this season, means he has played just twice since August and is currently sidelined for his club Inter Milan.
