Giovani dos Santos expects the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) does not make the mistake of letting go of his brother Jonathan, who belongs to Barcelona.

Gio came out in defense of his younger brother after the controversy that has arisen in recent days because Jonathan refused to play friendly matches against Ecuador and Colombia, preferring to Barcelona, where he sought a starter in the first team of Pep Guardiola.

"It would be a mistake for the Federation so easy to let go a player who is in the best team in the world, I think. I do not know what else they want," said Gio was quoted by the Catalan sports daily "Sport".

Gio said that because he is defending his brother Jonathan, but that is a very talented young man, who trains with large players, which they can learn many things.

"It's not because he's my brother, but is a player who is in Barcelona, training with the best in the world. The blank that gives you train with these figures do not get no play in any team," said Giovani.

It was rumored that could punish Jona FMF with no re-convene the Tri.

Even the owner of that body, Justino Compean, he commented that the boy "is not indispensable. "
