Mexico's Aguirre finalises World Cup squad after Serbia, Australia wins

Mexico’s national team coach Javier Aguirre confirmed that 26 players are prepared for the World Cup, stressing that the squad is at 100% physically and mentally after friendly victories over Australia and Serbia. He noted the team’s high‑pressing style remains unchanged and highlighted the depth in every position, saying any of the players could start. Despite the strong performances, Aguirre has not locked in a definitive starting eleven, indicating he will decide based on fitness and training loads in the days before the tournament’s opening match.

Aguirre also referenced the upcoming group‑stage opponent South Africa, noting their tactical mix but affirmed Mexico’s readiness to face them with confidence.
