Long-serving goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa returned to the Mexico roster on Thursday, earning a call-up from coach Javier Aguirre for this month's World Cup warm-up matches against Portugal and Belgium, Reuters reported. 

The 40-year-old Ochoa, who plays for Limassol in Cyprus, is hoping to appear in his sixth World Cup after featuring in five straight editions from 2006 through the most recent tournament in Qatar.

He had not been called up since May 2025, when he was named to the Gold Cup squad but did not play, according to Reuters.
