Player Hirving Lozano was excluded from the Mexican National Team call-up since March of this year, generating controversy and speculation about whether he was banned by the high command of the Tri. Although this version was never confirmed, it was rumored that an incident during a flight to concentrate with the national team could have been the cause of his exclusion.
According to journalist David Medrano, PSV has already received the letter from the Mexican National Team to call up Chucky again, which would indicate that the Aztec team has given the 29-year-old player a new opportunity. If confirmed, it would be his first call-up in the era of Javier Aguirre, who did not include him in his first two lists. The quarter-final matches of the Nations League against Honduras could mark his return.
Hirving Lozano is considered one of the key players in the new process of the Mexican National Team leading up to the 2026 World Cup, having participated in two World Cup tournaments like Edson Álvarez. Despite this, the forward will leave European football in December to join San Diego FC in MLS, which could influence his future call-ups with the Tri due to the lower level of demand in the American league.
The Mexican National Team will play their next match on November 15, visiting Honduras in the first leg of the Nations League quarter-finals. Four days later, the return match will take place at Estadio Nemesio Diez in Toluca.
