Chicharito Hernandez out of Copa America 2024
The reason why Chicharito Hernandez will not be part of Mexico’s squad for the Copa America 2024 is because he is no longer considered by the national team since 2019.
His last game with El Tri was in a friendly match against the United States in 2019, where Hernández scored his team’s first goal in a 3-0 victory. Since then, at the age of 36, he has not been called up again for any competition or friendly match.
