Playing Style
Luis Romo is a defensive midfielder who can also slot in at centre-back, a right-footed Guadalajara regular who shields the back line for Mexico. That ability to sit in front of the defence or drop into it is the core of his game. He is listed at 1.83 m and is right-footed. This season he has logged 2,453 minutes of club football for Guadalajara across all competitions, and at 31 he offers that defensive-midfield experience to Aguirre's squad.
World Cup History
The 2026 World Cup will be Luis Romo's second. He was part of Mexico's squad at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar without playing, and Javier Aguirre has named him in the 26 once more for 2026. The defensive midfielder arrives with 60 senior caps for Mexico, four of them goals. A place in a second World Cup squad reflects his standing as an experienced international, a familiar name in the Mexico setup over several years.
