But Gerardo “Tata” Martino hasn’t called him to Mexico National Team even though Luka Romero already said that he’s not closed to playing for El Tri, although he’s currently part of Argentina U-17 squad.

Why could Romero play for Mexico or Argentina?

Luka Romero was born in Mexico in 2004, when his father was playing soccer for Alacranes FC, in Mexico’s third division. He also has the Argentinean and Spanish nationality and given he hasn’t played on an official match for La Albiceleste, he could still play for any of the three National Teams.
