After having a very poor time at Chivas, Uriel Antuna had a change of scenery when he arrived at Cruz Azul, the Mexican winger has shown greater confidence and an evident improvement upon his arrival at La Noria, although it is still too early to judge the level of the former soccer player of the Sacred Flock.
However, Uriel was close to not reaching the machine, even his destiny was far from Liga MX, specifically in English football, in the second division where Middlesbrough, the club that recently eliminated Manchester United from the FA Cup seriously sought to sign Antuna, however, Chivas constantly denied the transfer of the Mexican winger.
According to information from MedioTiempo, there were several contacts between the English team and the Chivas board, there were even direct approaches to the club’s owner, Amaury Vergara, however, in the Sacred Flock they rejected all offers for Uriel, as they preferred to negotiate the exchange for Roberto Alvarado than to receive money for Antuna. Middlesbrough’s interest was so serious in getting the signing of the national team, that they even reached an economic agreement between them and the footballer, which did not materialize due to the position of the Verde Valle team.
