Club América experienced a turbulent winter transfer market. The board of directors of the azulcrema team struggled to get reinforcements for the Clausura 2022 tournament of Liga MX. The position that was most difficult for the Eagles to find was that of extreme right. To fill this vacancy, the names of Brian Ocampo, Pablo Solari, Iván Alejo, Paul Arriola and Uriel Antuna sounded. However, none of these negotiations came to fruition.
Finally, América opted for Juan Otero, a Colombian winger who arrived from Santos Laguna. According to the most recent reports, before closing this contract, the team from the capital sought to finalize a signing in La Liga. According to Diario AS, the azulcrema team was interested and made an offer of 5 million dollars for the Spanish winger Adrián Embarba, a player for RCD Espanyol.
This report indicates that Los Periquitos rejected the offer from the Mexican club, and another offer from FC Porto, because the economic proposals did not meet their expectations. Espanyol de Barcelona would seek to receive approximately 10 million euros for the player from Madrid, since this was the investment they made to buy his pass from Rayo Vallecano at the beginning of 2020.
According to the Transfermarkt portal, the value of the Spanish attacker has depreciated considerably and at the moment his letter is valued at 6 million euros. Embarba is a fixture in Espanyol’s scheme: this season he has played 1,588 minutes spread over 21 La Liga games and has two assists.
