The 8 million crack that wants to play for Mexico, but another country will step forward

The Mexican National Team could have a new luxury reinforcement. According to renowned sports journalist John Sutcliffe, Spanish midfielder Álvaro Fidalgo, a star of Club América, is very interested in applying for naturalization and representing Mexico at the international level.

In recent statements, Sutcliffe assured that Fidalgo has expressed his desire to play for El Tri, which has generated great expectation among Mexican fans. The talented midfielder, who has shown a great level in Liga MX, could become a key player for the national team in the coming years.

“I know that Fidalgo is very eager to do the paperwork (for naturalization). I also know that 'Vasco' Aguirre knows that, so it will be 'Vasco's' decision, but one would think that Álvaro Fidalgo could be someone who contributes a lot,” said Sutcliffe. He also pointed out that “Fidalgo is dying to be able to play in a World Cup, to play in the National Team, he is just a few steps away from being able to make a quick ‘fast track’ procedure and be ready to be called up if Javier Aguirre decides to call him up”.

The news of Fidalgo's possible naturalization comes at a time when El Tri is looking to renew its squad and find new talent to face upcoming international commitments, such as the 2026 World Cup. The Spanish midfielder, with his vision, ability to distribute the ball and ability to create dangerous plays, could bring a lot to the team coached by Javier Aguirre.

What requirements must Fidalgo meet to play for Mexico?

In order to represent Mexico at the international level, Fidalgo must meet the requirements established by FIFA. These include residing in the country for a certain period of time and demonstrating real roots in Mexican culture.

Although the naturalization process can be long and complex, it is expected that Fidalgo will be able to speed up the process and be available to be called up by El Tri in the near future.

Mexican fans excited about Fidalgo's arrival

The news of Fidalgo's possible arrival to El Tri has generated great enthusiasm among Mexican fans, who see in the Spanish player a great promise for the future of Mexican soccer.
