El Tri will be back in the Copa America this season after missing out on the last two editions of the tournament. Mexico will be heading into the United States with high expectations which are sometimes not very realistic. Mexico is the dark-horse candidate who are not among the favorites to win in the United States.

Mexico veterans goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa and forward Hirving Lozano were surprisingly left out of the Copa America squad as the boss Jaime Lozano wants to usher into a new era of talent ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Ochoa who was a mainstay in the squad for the last three World Cup tournaments has 150 caps with the national side, dating back to 2004.

Now, let’s take a look at the initial 31-man roster for Copa America 2024.
