International career
Youth
In October 2020, Galdames received his first ever call up to the Mexico national under-20 team by Raúl Chabrand for training camp.
On 9 October 2021, Galdames made his Mexico under-21 debut in a friendly match against the Romania U21 side. He was called up by Raúl Chabrand to participate with the under-21 team at the 2022 Maurice Revello Tournament,[1] where Mexico finished the tournament in third place.[2]
Senior
In December 2021, Galdames was included in the senior national team call-up by Gerardo Martino for a friendly match against Chile set to take place on December 8.[3] He had also been called up for Chile by the coach Martín Lasarte, but he rejected that chance.[4]
Personal life
Galdames is the son of Chilean former international footballer Pablo Galdames.[5] He was born in Mexico City due to his father being a Cruz Azul player at the time. Due to the fact that he holds dual Mexican-Chilean nationality, he can play for the Chile national team as well as the Mexico national team.[6]
From his paternal line, he is the younger brother of the Chilean footballers Pablo Jr. and Thomas[5] and the half-brother of the also footballer Mathías.[7][8] In addition, through his maternal line, he and his brothers are related to the Spanish footballer Nerea Sánchez Millán.[9]
