Chicharito and Lozano headline Mexico roster for friendlies, Gio dos Santos out with injury

Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez and Hirving Lozano are two of the Europe-based stars to headline Mexico's roster for a pair of upcoming friendlies.

El Tri will face Iceland at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on March 23, and will then take on Croatia at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on March 27.

The two games take place in a FIFA window, meaning coach Juan Carlos Osorio will be able to choose from both domestic and foreign-based options.

Monterrey midfielder Jonathan Gonzalez, who made a one-time switch from the U.S. to Mexico in January, has also been named to the roster.
