One of the reasons why Cruz Azul fell short in the last Liga MX final was its lack of squad. Those from the country’s capital did not have plenty of options on the bench, which is why this summer Iván Alonso has moved into the market to strengthen all areas of the field, primarily with Mexican players.
Now, as we have informed you in 90min, they are looking for a playmaker who will not burn up a foreign position and, in addition to the options of Angulo and Cortizo, there are a couple of names in mind.
Sources confirm that those from La Noria have set their sights on Jordan Carrillo, the great jewel of Santos who is liked by both the sports area and Martín Anselmi. The celestials consider that the squad currently does not have a player with the virtues of the one selected by Mexico, capable of generating but who is also a virtuoso in one-on-one with the ball at his feet, not only in space play.
Carrillo is the priority, however, in La Noria they have something very clear, in Santos they are not going to give in so easily upon his departure, since the player is key in Ambriz’s scheme. That being the case, the Celeste Machine has a plan B, it is Brian Gutiérrez, a name that has been heard too much this summer in Liga MX.
The midfielder for the Chicago Fire of the MLS has Mexican ancestry, which is why he would not occupy a foreign position. Furthermore, his talent has left the best clubs in the country impressed.
