Rafa Márquez’s era in charge of the Mexican National Team is about to begin, and the new head coach has requested special permission from Chivas de Guadalajara. Despite the restriction limiting clubs to releasing only two players due to the Liga MX schedule continuing, the manager is looking to call up three Chivas players.

Two established World Cup figures

The squad includes goalkeeper Raúl Rangel, the undisputed starter between the posts thanks to his excellent footwork, and forward Roberto 'Piojo' Alvarado, who established himself as one of the national team’s most decisive attacking players.

The third spot would mark the coach’s first major gamble. Diego Campillo is emerging as an option because of his solidity and clean distribution from the back, competing for that place with Bryan 'Cotorro' González amid the need to refresh the left-back position.
