After the controversy that aroused his arrival in América after being separated from Chivas, Cristian “Chicote” Calderón He has hard-earned the starting position on the left side.
When it seemed that it was an unnecessary signing, Calderón overcame the negative comments from the fans and the media surrounding his arrival at the azulcrema team and immediately performed in the system of André Jardineto the point of becoming the undisputed holder of the left sector.
Although the veteran Luis Fuentes He was an important player for the club in winning the league title last year, Calderón is a player profile that has caught Jardine's eye from the first moment. Although he does not add as much as Fuentes with the ball at his feet, the former Chivas and Necaxa player offers greater dynamics to surprise the attacking space.

Also, despite being a player with some disconnections, his intensity and speed of approach have allowed him to make a difference in the defensive aspect compared to his predecessor. Another who has seen his prominence diminished with the arrival of Calderón was Salvador Reyesnominal left back who this year, apparently, will be considered to occupy other positions, as we saw in the recent match against Monterrey.
Far from weakening, Jardine's América has further strengthened the squad, adding, as in the case of Cristian “Chicote” Calderón, profiles that not only did it not have, but also make it a more competitive team with a view to winning it all in 2024.
