Striker André-Pierre Gignac did not need to be born in Mexico to fall in love with that country, its culture, idiosyncrasies and also with El Tri. In a video broadcast on tik tok, the Frenchman wore the new alternative shirt that the Mexican team will use in the Qatar World Cup 2022.
Recently the German brand Adidas revealed the official jerseys that will be used by the different teams that are worn by them and those of Mexico are on the list. The design of the piece has been accepted by fans and now Gignac himself wears it with a smile.
Gignac appears in the Tigres UANL locker room with Igor Lichnovsky and Guido Pizarro joking with the T shirt. And it is not the first time he has done it, already in Russia 2018 the Frenchman wore the green jacket of El Tri.
This shirt has a special meaning, according to the Mexican National Team statement: “It is inspired by the abundant graphic elements of the pre-Hispanic collective memory of Mexico; the shirt features a design that converges with national cultural icons”.
In the current Opening Tournament 2022 of the League MX André-Pierre Gignac adds four goals and two assists with the cat’s jersey. And this Saturday the French striker will face Club América at the Azteca stadium, a place where he has played great games in his career.
