Two teams follow the track of the 17-year-old midfielder and at the same time collide in the Concacaf Pre-Olympic
Marcelo Flores placeholder image, Arsenal player, must have concentrated with the Mexican Under-20 National Team, on the FIFA date of March, but did not travel due to injury, sources informed ESPN Digital. The 17-year-old is in the sights of the Tricolor and Canada, two teams that follow the track of the midfielder and that, at the same time, collide in the Concacaf Pre-Olympic in the match that gives a ticket to Tokyo 2020.
The young midfielder was born in Canada, but his dad is Mexican. The two teams have Marcelo Flores in their sights, but the Tricolor takes the lead. Even so, the rival of the Mexican National Team in the Concacaf Pre-Olympic does not give up in its intention to convince the Gunner. The technician of the Sub 23 of the country of the maple leaf made public the interest.
“He is a player that we have seen a lot, we would like to have him in our team. He is being sought by other federations. We are interested. There will be opportunities along the way for him and we will do our best to try to integrate him into the group,” said Mauro Biello, coach of the Mexican Under-23 National Team.
Canada bets on making history against Mexico and winning the ticket to the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, in the semifinals of the Concacaf Pre-Olympic. On another front, in January he called Marcelo Flores to a national team camp and hopes to convince the promise of Arsenal.
Mexico, in turn, contemplates Marcelo Flores, who has tried to summon him on more than one occasion this year. For now, in ninety minutes, the U-23 division needs to overtake Canada at the Jalisco stadium and leave the Pre-Olympic behind, to become the Mexican Olympic National Team.
