Mexikos skadekrizis förvärras inför VM 2026 med Malagón borta

Club Américas målvakt Luis Malagóns akillesskada, bekräftad med lyckad operation och 6–8 månaders rehabilitering, innebär att han missar VM 2026. Detta tillkommer Mexikos växande spelarfbrist och testar landslagets bredd under Javier Aguirre.

Luis Malagón bars ut på bår under Club Américas CONCACAF Champions Cup-match mot Philadelphia Union tidigare i veckan efter en ruptur i akillessenan. Efter lyckad operation i Guadalajara är den 29-åriges prognostiserade återhämtningstid 6 till 8 månader, vilket räknar ut honom från VM-premiären den 11 juni på Estadio Azteca. Mexikos landslag tampas nu med en lång skadelista: Rodrigo Huescas, Cesar Huerta, Cesar Montes, Jesus Orozco, Mateo Chavez, Edson Alvarez, Luis Romo och Gilberto Mora är fortfarande borta. Santiago Giménez och Luis Chávez har nyligen återupptagit träningen, men Marcel Ruiz drog på sig en ny skada i veckan. Dessa utmaningar, förstärkta av Malagóns frånvaro, skärper konkurrensen om nyckelpositionerna inför fortsatta förberedelser.
