Israel Reyes

ANALYSIS
Reyes is coming off an excellent domestic campaign in which he impressed both at center- and right-back. With Mexico, however, he's expected to feature primarily on the flank, where he remains locked in a close battle with Jorge Eduardo Sanchez for playing time and could alternate between starts and substitute appearances throughout the tournament. The 26-year-old will also have extra motivation knowing several European clubs are monitoring him ahead of a potential move after the World Cup. He has already made 31 international appearances, standing out for his defensive reliability, and also scoring a pair of goals back in 2023.
