Javier Orozco replacing Chicharito on Mexico's Gold Cup roster
The Santos forward will take the place of the injured Mexico forward, arriving this weekend.
Santos Laguna forward Javier "Chuleta" Orozco is disappointed about the circumstances of his call-up to the Mexican national team but says he is ready to help the team
"It’s a shame that Chicharito is injured because we know he is a great striker,” Orozco told his club's official site. “He’s a leading force up front for the national team, and I hope he recovers soon. Now I have an opportunity and I am going to try and take full advantage of it.
"We have been working hard here in preseason, two or three times a day. [Now that I’ve been called,] I can go about it in the best way.”
