In Cruz Azul they want to build a real blunderbuss for the Clausura 2022 that allows them to dream of the tenth Liga MX title after breaking the 23 and a half year drought in 2021 during the first semester, because in the second they were eliminated in the Repechage leaving a sad face for a defending monarch, that is why they are not satisfied with the five additions to date.
Two other signings would be added to the arrival of Erik Lira , Carlos Rodríguez, Alejandro Mayorga, Uriel Antuna and Christian Tabó . One of those who most long to close is Unai Bilbao to rejuvenate the central defense, since Cata Domínguez has one year left on his contract and the intentions of a renewal are still unknown.
Liga MX teams, to fight against COVID … Again
After the positive cases of COVID have increased in the MX League , the teams analyze increasing the safety and hygiene measures of both the players and technical bodies, as well as the staff.
In some clubs, staff have already been asked to try not to attend crowded places and limit their movement when they are outside the facilities, to avoid more infections.
The closure of the Volcano and BBVA is looming due to COVID
The rise in COVID-19 infections in Nuevo León has alarmed the State Secretariat of Health, so that from 90 percent of the capacity, they dropped to 70 and in a few days it will be 50 and 30 percent, as expected after change from green to orange traffic light.
But there is not everything, Samuel García, governor of Nuevo León, has already talked with Tigres and Rayados to let them know that it is very likely that in February there will be games without an audience , since the fourth wave is hitting hard.
It was even a recommendation by the Ministry of Health that the doors of Tigres training sessions be closed , as well as the face-to-face press conferences, since there were several reporters who also tested positive these days.
The fury of Pumas fans for Lira
Although the board has its plans, the secrecy they keep has only caused Pumas fans to take advantage of any window to express their annoyance at the sale of important players . The most recent case was the departure of Erik Lira , an announcement that was made until the midfielder officially signed with Cruz Azul, despite the fact that everyone knew that the signing was done.
As soon as the club announced the withdrawal, only the fury of the followers on social networks overflowed even more , who do not explain how, despite sales of players, money is always missing.
Cabecita Rodríguez and her dream come true
Jonathan Rodríguez was one of the players who requested the most increase in salary from the Cruz Azul board of directors . The arguments of the 2021 Guard1anes championship and the individual scoring title became a constant pressure from the Uruguayan representative towards the cement dome.
Thus, the offer of the Arab club Al-Nassr immediately seduced the player due to the increase in salary that it meant, despite his family’s desire to move to the United States, because in the MLS there were offers for the footballer that never convinced the team blue, but yes to the environment of the forward.
Once Cabecita managed to convince his wife to undertake the adventure in Arab lands, they agreed with the club to begin the negotiations that came to fruition, although the payment of the Arab team (7 million dollars) does not fully compensate the investment that La Machine had made when he acquired the soccer player for 10 million dollars from Santos.
