The Mexico national team will continue its 2026 World Cup preparations in the final week of February with an international friendly against Iceland on Wednesday and Javier Aguirre unveiled the roster that will travel to the clash, raising a few eyebrows with a couple of decisions, including the omission of Diego Lainez.
As was the case in Mexico’s January camp where it secured wins against Panama and Bolivia, Aguirre’s roster is exclusively comprised of Liga MX players. Given there’s no FIFA international break in February, players overseas will remain with their clubs while El Tri plays its third match of 2026.
