Aguirre: Mexico's Starting XI Still Uncertain

Mexico’s coach Javier Aguirre admitted that the starting eleven for the 2026 World Cup is not yet set. He highlighted the depth of the 26‑man squad, noting that several players can fill multiple roles and no clear hierarchy has emerged.

Aguirre framed the uncertainty as a strength, fostering internal competition and tactical flexibility. The final lineup will be decided based on players’ form in the upcoming matches.

He stressed that the lack of a fixed XI is a strategic advantage rather than a weakness.
