Rafael Márquez has revealed his first roster call-up as the manager of the Mexican National Team for an upcoming series of four September friendly matches. The announcement marks the official start of a new era for the Tricolor squad following months of rumors and speculation.

Notable inclusions in the debut squad features key players such as forward Hirving Lozano—a veteran of the 2018 and 2022 World Cups playing for Los Angeles Galaxy—and Inter Miami forward Germán Berterame. Additionally, the roster highlights fresh talent and lesser-known names receiving their first formal call-ups to the senior national team.

Among the new faces is goalkeeper Óscar “El Gato” García from Club León, who transitions to the senior squad after participating in prior developmental processes.
