It has been said many times that for Mexican players playing in Europe seems so complicated that it should be a privilege and not a burden. Precisely under that concept, the current coach of Santos Laguna Ignacio Ambriz, in exclusive interview with The opinion He opted for the ownership of Santiago Giménez in the attack of the Mexican team simply because of his experience in Europe.
Ambriz’s opinion was not intended to interfere in the decisions of the current coach of the Mexican national team, but simply to make a difference in what it represents for Mexican players to acquire experience in a football level higher than in Liga MX, where Henry Martín and Julián Quiñones, their direct competitors for the title in the Mexican eleven, participate.
“The decision is not difficult according to the idea you have in your head and about that idea, Know which one is closest to the idea you have in your head. We know in advance that all three of them are very good players. The only difference between them is that they play in Europe every eight days or every third day and have another friction,” he said with the authority that comes from having coached Huesca in Spain.
The former coach of teams at the América and Chivas level, He pointed out the difference that playing at other levels should make for Santiago Giménez in his desire to take over ownership in the attack of the Mexican team.
“I think that is a big difference and that does not take away the quality of the other two players. “They also play doubleheaders like in Europe, but I think that with all the respect they deserve, they are different levels of competition,” he said.
Nacho went further in his presentation than: “Santi has had a hard time, he has earned it, he has fought to stay there in a good line, along those lines that tomorrow in his training it seems that it was appropriate to go to Holland to finish training in sports and as a person to be able to aspire to go to another country like Spain or England, which can take that leap and say that its growth is important.”
He also added about that eternal discussion that the Mexican player does not like to go to Europe so as not to leave his comfort zone that: “Then they come out to say that there is a need for Mexican players in Europe, When I played the only ones were Luis García and Hugo Sánchez and there weren’t that many fights. It would be ideal to have 60 or 70 players at that level.”
However, he commented that the decision should be that of coach Jaime Lozano and even went further by suggesting that they could play Henry Martín, Julián Quiñones and Santiago Giménez as starters in the next Copa América.
“I think the decision is up to the coach in the football idea that you have, who of the three can play And why not the three that can play? But each coach has his own idea and if in that idea that the coach of the Mexican national team has, if only one can play, then even if one thinks otherwise, it will be his decision and “You must die with it,” he concluded.
