A crucial summer awaits for the Mexican Men’s National Team as El Tri prepares for the 2024 Copa America in the United States.
During the tournament, Mexico manager Jaime Lozano will start to figure out his 23-man roster and starting XI ahead of the 2026 World Cup, part of which will take place on home soil in Mexico.
It will also be a chance for the new generation of El Tri stars to make a name for themselves in front of friendly crowds in the U.S. Forward Santiago Gimenez, winger Marcelo Flores, and defender Israel Reyes could cement places in the starting lineup with a good tournament.
Ahead of Copa America, El Tri will face a great challenge in the CONCACAF Nations League. If El Tri gets past Panama in the first match, it could face the USA, which has already won two Nations League titles against Mexico. This kind of regional rivalry should help the younger Mexico players get ready for the type of competition they’ll see in the summer against the South American powers.
Follow along all tournament long on the Sporting News as El Tri and the world’s stars come to play in the Copa America in the United States.

Mexico in 2024 Copa America
The last Copa America match that Mexico played is one that burns badly in the memories of El Tri fans. In the quarterfinals of the 2016 Copa America centenario in the U.S., Mexico – coached by Juan Carlos Osorio – were smashed, 7-0, by Chile.
This time around, Mexico fans will hope that Lozano’s squad can fare better. Mexico will certainly be a favorite to get out of their group, and then they will likely face either Argentina or Canada/Peru/Chile in the quarterfinals. A rematch with Chile could give El Tri fans some revenge this year, even if Chile isn’t at the same heights as it was back in 2016.
And what would be a better way to watch El Tri than with the latest authentic jersey from Fanatics.
