Jonathan Espericueta confesses how he escaped from the CAR

MLS continues adding European figures

It is no longer new: every season the MLS shakes up the market with the hiring of stars who shone in Europe. The economic power of the American league has attracted names such as David Beckham, Kaká, Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez. Everyone helped to grow the projection of the tournament.

Antoine Griezmann is the last to join. The 35-year-old Frenchman closed his time at Atlético de Madrid and will join the Orlando City project. The club managed to seduce the attacker.

But the MLS doesn’t stop there. In the last few hours the name of Mohamed Salah, former Liverpool figure, emerged as one of the main objectives. The Egyptian forward played in the World Cup with his national team and today is a free agent, which makes him a coveted piece.

Concrete interest in Salah

According to American media reports, Salah also has important suitors in Saudi Arabia. However, Sporting Kansas City remains attentive and is considering presenting an offer.

It is expected that in the coming days, once his rest after the World Cup is over, Salah and his entourage will define their next step.

Guillermo Ochoa, one of the most emblematic goalkeepers in Mexican soccer, published a message on Instagram that ignited reactions among followers and colleagues. The publication exceeded 300 thousand likes and accumulated more than two thousand comments in a few hours.

“The lights go out. The people leave. The grass remains the same. But there are nights that stay forever. Thank you for walking this path with me,” wrote the former captain of America.

The text aroused signs of affection from national football figures. Santiago Giménez, AC Milan forward, commented: “You stay forever.” Luis Chávez, midfielder, responded: “Thank you captain, maximum respect.” Andrés Guardado, another legend, also joined in: “You are very great brother. Thank you for everything.”

Speculation about his future is not new. Prior to the World Cup, FIFA released an interview in which Ochoa hinted that the tournament could be his farewell to professional soccer. With this new message, the clues about his retirement become clearer.

Ochoa, trained in the basic forces of America, has been a key member of the Mexican National Team in five World Cups. Although he has not officially confirmed anything, the tone of his post and the responses of his colleagues suggest that the end of an era is approaching.

A scorer who broke records

With four goals in the World Cup, Julián Quiñones established himself as the great figure of the Mexican National Team. His performance led him to be Mexico’s top scorer in World Cup history. That sign opened the doors to the Premier League, considered the most competitive league on the planet.

According to reports from Saudi Arabia, the former América footballer is among the options that several English teams have in their sights to reinforce their attack. The information was replicated in Europe. The journalist specialized in transfers Sacha Tavolieri assured that Aston Villa is closely monitoring the Mexican’s situation.

The English team has not yet presented a formal offer, but is analyzing a possible approach with Al-Qadsiah to find out the conditions of a negotiation.

A historic season

Julián Quiñones had an unforgettable campaign: he became the Saudi Pro League scoring champion with 33 goals in 31 games. He surpassed the Englishman Ivan Toney (32 goals) and took a wide lead over Cristiano Ronaldo, who finished with 27 goals.

His performance in the World Cup and in the Saudi league places him as a coveted reinforcement. Aston Villa are looking for a top striker, and Quiñones fits the profile. The English board is already evaluating the steps to follow to try to sign him.
