Mexico head coach Javier Aguirre has finalized a 20-man squad for an international friendly against Ghana, scheduled for Friday, May 22, 2026.

The home fixture serves as a critical evaluation period for both nations as they conclude their preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The El Tri roster features a mix of seasoned veterans and younger talents, including defender Jesus Gallardo, Israel Reyes, Brian Gutierrez, and winger Alexis Vega.

As a co-host of the upcoming tournament, Mexico is using the match to refine tactics before their World Cup opener against South Africa on June 11.

The encounter is equally vital for Ghana’s Black Stars, providing a competitive test ahead of their Group L campaign.

Ghana is set to begin its World Cup journey against Panama on June 17 in Toronto, followed by group stage matches against England and Croatia.

The friendly is expected to offer both coaching staffs a benchmark for squad depth and tactical readiness before the global tournament begins.
