Mexico name U-23 coach and squad for friendlies against Colombia

Mexico have named Ricardo Cadena as the new U-23 coach for their National Team to take the place of Gerardo Espinosa. Espinosa resigned to take over the coaching job at Puebla only to discover that because of rules in Mexican football, a NT coach can’t take a club job that same season. Cadena will start his tenure with two matches announced against Colombia to take place in Mexico on September 9 and 12 as they prepare for their participation in the 2023 Pan American Games.

The first squad that Cadenda will coach is the following:

Goalkeepers: Fernando Tapia (Queretaro), Raul Rangel (Chivas).
