Santiago Giménez trains alone in Mexico due to right adductor overload

FC Porto forward Santiago Giménez was seen training alone from the rest of the group on Wednesday, while the Mexican national team prepares for the next international window. The player's inclusion in Mexico's squad was confirmed, despite a strain in the right adductor muscle that prevents him from taking part in collective training.

Medical procedures and expectations

According to the Mexican press, the muscle injury requires special care; both parties – club and national team – are taking precautions to avoid worsening. The Mexican medical team is handling the case, with close monitoring by FC Porto, which tracks the athlete's progress.

Authorities hope that Santiago Giménez can resume normal training on Thursday, should his recovery progress according to the treatment plan. The Portuguese club shows concern, but trusts the rehabilitation process led by the Mexican specialists.

The player was included in the call‑up list for four friendly matches that the Mexican national team will play during this international break. The fixtures are scheduled against Colombia on September 27, Peru on September 30, the United States on October 4 and Chile on October 7.

These commitments were announced by the Mexican Football Federation, which confirmed Santiago Giménez's participation in the fixtures, despite his current health situation.

FC Porto is closely monitoring the athlete's progress, maintaining constant communication with the Mexican medical team to ensure that his return to the field occurs safely and effectively.
