Cruz Azul’s last tournament was above what they even expected internally. Reaching the final of the Liga MX was not in the initial plans and although this achievement was largely courtesy of the collective performance of Anselmi’s team, there were players who individually shone with their own light, one of them goalkeeper Kevin Mier, the best goalkeeper in the ranks of the machine since the goodbye of Corona and who is now in the sights of the Argentine giant, River Plate.
🚨 River Plate is targeting Kevin Mier to replace Franco Armani ⚽️🧤😱https://t.co/zxC5E5ftnc

As México reports that given River’s need to renew the goal, the Argentine team has put Mier as one of its great options for this summer, being, together with Mele, star goal of the Uruguayan National Team, the best valued names. Kevin’s option has been popular for some time, as those from Río de la Plata understand that he is a top-level saver and also has the additional attribute of having outstanding footwork.
In any case, the move will not be easy, in La Noria they signed Kevin’s contract extension a couple of weeks ago just with the intention of protecting themselves from the international market, which is why any club that wants to sign Mier must negotiate with Cruz Azul for a price of around 10 million dollars, a figure that River Plate can pay, but that does not go hand in hand with the club’s philosophy.
