Lainez, Macias lead Mexico U-20 World Cup roster, Gonzalez left out

Diego Ramirez will head to Poland with a team comprised of several star names, including Real Betis winger Diego Lainez and Leon forward Jose Juan Macias.

Lainez has four caps with the senior Mexico team, and El Tri manager Tata Martino said he considered bringing the America product to the Gold Cup with the senior team this summer. Ultimately, though, the 18-year-old will lead Ramirez's squad.

Lainez is the only player based outside of Mexico in the group, but several players including Macias and Cruz Azul midfielder Misael Dominguez have starting experience under their belt in Liga MX.
