It is undeniable: Cristian Calderón has not lived up to expectations in Chivas de Guadalajara. The winger shone with Necaxa, but since his arrival at the Sacred Herd he has not been able to find his best version. Outside of a superlative performance in the quarterfinals of the Guardians 2020 against America, the defender has not been able to deliver.
The rojiblanca directive has been very clear: all the players in the squad can go out. Calderón is one of the elements whose exit seems most feasible. In this context, Tigres had sounded like one of the most interested Liga MX teams. The UANL team has had ‘Chicote’ on its radar for a long time and could incorporate the side to its ranks for the Clausura 2022 tournament.
However, according to reports from the chain TUDN, Toluca would be the team that has raised its hand with the most determination to incorporate ‘Chicote’ Calderón to its squad. The Red Devils, now under the orders of Ignacio Ambriz, would like to add the former Atlas de Guadalajara and Necaxa player to the club.
The loss of level of the 24-year-old defender prevented him from attending the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and from being considered by the Mexican National Team. With the Sacred Flock, ‘Chicote’ has 43 games, six goals and just one assist, numbers that have not convinced either the fans or the board.
The scarlet team would be making a significant investment to return to the top positions in Mexican soccer. In addition to Cristian Calderón, the Red Devils would look for Leonardo Fernández and Guillermo ‘Pol’ Fernández.
