The Argentine goalkeeper and star of Celta de Vigo, Agustín Marchesín, decided to put an end to the rumors about his possible return with the Águilas of Club América and especially about the alleged request for more money that he made to the board of directors to be part of their ranks and thus become the team’s new starting goalkeeper for the current Apertura 2023 tournament of Liga MX.
During an interview offered for TUDN, the player stated that the Águilas del América have a very special space in his heart and that for no reason has he requested larger amounts of money to face the current season of Aztec football.
“I am sincere, I have a very great affection for the club, I only have gratitude, money was never talked about, it would never be an economic issue, I would be incapable of doing something like that, the best thing would be to speak with the truth because people are left with an image of me that does not belong to me,” Marchesín expressed in his statements.
The Argentine goalkeeper explained that at the time he made the decision not to return to the Coapa team because he was going through difficult times; He also ruled out that his absence was due to the presence of Guillermo ‘Memo’ Ochoa in the squad and instead described him as the “Mexican Messi” due to the importance he has given to the sport of his country for so many years.
“They were difficult times to return to, it is embarrassing and shameful that they say those things, Memo for me is the historical reference of Mexico, he is the Mexican Messi, I have enormous respect for him, half of what he can win would be shameful on my part to ask for such a figure that I saw that not even in the best moment of my career have I won that, he added.
Finally, Marchesín explained that there are only two teams in his life that could overcome any economic issue because they generate a greater impact on his heart and they are precisely Lanús and América, so he is completely focused on helping them conquer the champion title of the Apertura 2023 tournament of the Liga MX.
“There are two clubs that go beyond money for me, I have told my wife, América and Lanús, they go beyond economics. We have talked, but it was not possible for the moment, Memo was there, I was covered, the reality is that, there were always messages of friendship, like when you joke with a friend, but my dream is to return to America or, well, to Mexico, “My son is Mexican and it would be great to be able to return,” he concluded.
