The Colombian defender was also questioned about the decision of his compatriot Julián Quiñones to leave the Colombian team and want to play with the Mexican team for the next World Cup in 2026, a competition that will be held in the United States, Canada and the Aztec nation.
“Afterwards, Julián Quiñones’ decision is very personal to him, he surely feels very identified with Mexico because he came here very young, it is his decision and I hope he does well in the future,” Ditta highlighted.
