Cruz Azul has already started its journey in the Closing Tournament of the MX League and even with the urgency of a striker to compete, an option that seemed to be given was that of Luis Suárez but the Uruguayan preferred to go to the Brazilian league with Gremio. Now the cement team is closely following the situation of Radamel Falcao to incorporate it into this market, according to various media reports.
Falcao currently does not have a good present, since at Rayo Vallecano he has only started 3 of the 14 LaLiga games and at 36 he could leave Europe to seek more regularity towards the end of his career.
But not everything sounds so easy for “La Máquina” since its squad currently has the maximum allowed of 10 foreigners, so it would have to get rid of some to make way for the Colombian. Falcao’s token has a market value of $2.5 million according to Transfermarkt, so Cruz Azul would have to pay a figure close to that and with only 6 months left on the contract, Rayo could take advantage and get some revenue from the transaction.
On the other hand, the salary of “El Tigre” currently stands at $1.2 million, which could be another problem for Cruz Azul. For now there is nothing concrete about the transaction, but the truth is that the Celeste team wants and needs a weight striker for this year.
Enner Valencia as an option
Another striker who seems to be in the Cruz Azul folder is the Ecuadorian Enner Valencia who plays for Fenerbahce and who is dreaming of leaving Europe at the age of 33 after the excellent World Cup he did in Qatar.
