Mexico will announce a preliminary list of players for the 2026 World Cup. This was announced by National Teams Director Duilio Davino. The first part of the list, including only players from the Mexican league (Liga MX), will be announced between April 20 and 26. This will allow the players to rest before reporting for the national team camp on May 6. Davino confirmed that clubs will be notified first, after which the information will be made public. The final list of players from European leagues will be announced by the FIFA deadline of May 30. Head coach Javier Aguirre has faced challenges due to injuries to 12 players, including key figures who helped win last year's Nations League and Gold Cup. Despite this, Aguirre and Davino have expressed optimism, noting that many players are recovering and will be ready for the World Cup. Only those with a guaranteed spot in the squad will be called up. Davino also confirmed a friendly match against Serbia, scheduled for June 4 in Toluca.
