La Vinotinto’s star player, Salomón Rondón, is set to represent Venezuela in the upcoming FIFA date matches against Italy and Guatemala. The Venezuelan Football Federation (FVF) has announced the 32 players called up by coach Fernando “Bocha” Batista, with Rondón’s inclusion making headlines.
Rondón, who is currently playing for Club Pachuca in the Mexican soccer league, has been in top form and has quickly become a fan favorite at the club. With 6 goals and 2 assists in 10 games, Rondón has helped lead Pachuca to the top of the table in the 2024 Liga MX Clausura Tournament.
Pachuca, tied for first place with 22 points alongside Cruz Azul and Monterrey, boasts the highest number of goals scored in the league with 24. This success has been attributed in part to Rondón’s impressive performances on the field.
The club recently congratulated Rondón on his call-up to the national team, praising him as “the idol of eastern Mexico.” Fans are eagerly awaiting Rondón’s next match against Querétaro, where he will look to extend his scoring streak and continue his exceptional season in Mexican soccer.
