'Pocho' Guzmán will not pass Jaime Lozano's final cut to play in the Nations League

Jaime Lozano presented a list of 60 players eligible for the Nations League in March.

Gibrán Araige advances TUDN that the captain of Chivas and today the top scorer in Liga MX does not have the slightest option of making the 'jimmy' cut. Guzmán's great performance so far in 2024 does not qualify him to be considered among the 23 best Mexicans today, thus, his name was on the pre-list due to the need to complete a first call of 60 men, in the which would be very strange and questionable if the player with the most goals in the country to date were not there.

For months it has been rumored that the 'pocho' is banned from El Tri due to his off-field controversies, an alleged case of doping that was never 100% clarified, as well as problems with coaches such as Almada and Paunovic.
