Martino and the decision to naturalize Rivero to take him to the World Cup with El Tri

The Mexican national team is close to facing another World Cup in November. The process of coach Gerardo Martino has certainly been questioned during the last few years. The level of the national team has not been as expected and the results rarely came through a good performance.

In that sense, the hopes of Mexican fans for Qatar 2022 are not the most ideal. However, Gerardo Martino wants to make things right and find ways to improve the team even more. For this reason, he is now looking for the naturalization of another element to take him to Qatar 2022.

In previous interviews Ignacio Rivero acknowledged his desire to play the World Cup with his country Uruguay. However, the refusal of the Uruguayan team has been categorical and he has never been included in the team's process. For this reason, the Cruz Azul player is already looking at the Mexican national team as a possible destination.

Can Ignacio Rivero be naturalized?

The reality is that the Uruguayan midfielder is close to reaching the minimum number of years to opt for Mexican residency. Since he arrived at Xolos de Tijuana to later go to Cruz Azul, the player has been in the Mexican country for 4 years and could be considered in the process for the World Cup but in 2026.
