German Berteramea naturalized Mexican Argentine forward from Inter Miami, would be losing ground in the final choice to make up the list of forwards of the Mexico team for the 2026 World Cup, where Raúl Jiménez, Santiago Giménez, Armando González and Guillermo Martínez They would be the chosen ones.
According to unofficial versions, Berterame would have the least amount of options to be chosen among the gunners of the national team, especially because Raúl Jiménez and Santiago Giménez would have a hand in putting together the first two options in Mexico’s attack, then Armando González would come as a replacement and as the tactical option there would be Guillermo “Memote” Martínez

In the data being handled, coach Javier Aguirre would supposedly not take into account the former Atlético San Luis and Monterrey forward in the list that the national coach will announce on June 1 cWhen will be the deadline to announce the 26 summoned from each of the 48 teams who will participate in the global event.
It is assured that Mexico will play in a style where there is no room for carrying five center forwards and in this sense Orbelín Pineda of AEK from Greece would be used as a winger by the right sector with which he would have gained ground on Berterame.
Another reason that has Germán hanging by a thread in the final call is that Vasco has four center forwards contemplated: Raúl Jiménez, Armando González, Santiago Giménez and Guillermo Martínez, so there would be no place there either.
The last thing would be that if he is called up he will be concentrating in the last days, since the MLS will release the players until after the friendly match against Australia in the United Statesleaving only room for the June 4 game against Ghana in Toluca, State of Mexico.
The players who apparently will be nominated to integrate the Mexico offense, they would be Raúl Jiménez from Fulham, Santiago Giménez from AC Milan, Armando González from Chivas and Guillermo Martínez of Pumas, but knowing that Aguirre is a coach with codes, it seems very complicated that he has generated the procedure of naturalizing Berterame to leave him out of the World Cup.
Berterame is a player who has important skills and in each match of the Mexican team in the process under the command of Javier Aguirre has responded with good performances and that would complicate the final decision.

Another important point to take into account is that Raúl Jiménez is firmly in the squad and Javier Aguirre Apparently he will not dare to leave out Armando González from Chivas and Guillermo Martínez from Pumas, after both players were among the players who could no longer participate in the league with their respective teams.
