The Águilas del América were owed in the Liga MX . The azulcrema team was eliminated from the Guard1anes League 2021 before a surprising Pachuca . In this sense, the club is already thinking about next season. However, everything is not related to incorporations, but must also generate options in the event of possible cancellations. One of them would be the departure of “Memo” Ochoa to the MLS
.
Rumors are swirling that Memo Ochoa, current
@ ClubAmerica_EN and @ miseleccionmxEN goalkeeper, could be making his way to MLS after a recent offer- While I rarely believe transfer rumors, its odd that the player has a recently created profile on the league’s official website pic.twitter.com/wUFI7SuFcl

In the last hours the issue arose that the experienced goalkeeper would leave the club. According to reports, the Mexican goalkeeper would have received a very good offer from Major League Soccer. In this sense, Ochoa would be studying the proposal together with his family circle.
Everything seems to indicate that the Mexican would leave the Eagles and would set out for the United States . Under these conditions, América will have to start looking for a replacement for its goalkeeper of 35 year old.
TO THE MLS? 😱😱

Ochoa does not go for free
If any MLS team wants to get the service of the goalkeeper, must make a good offer to the Mexican team. Guillermo arrived in Las Águilas, from Standard Lieja, for $ 1.2 million dollars , approximately. However, currently the footballer is valued at $ 2.2 million , which would mean a profit for the club.

Another important point of the financial aspect is that the departure of Ochoa would lighten the salaries of the campus . “Memo” earned $ 4.5 million per season . If it leaves in this market, Las Águilas could save $ 6.7 million dollars corresponding to all the remaining salary of the contract.
The replacement of “Memo” is in the spotlight
According to local information, the creams would already have among their plans a possible hiring to replace this absence. The goalkeeper of Atlas , Camilo Vargas , would be the ideal goalkeeper to defend the Eagles goal. It is said that the club has established contacts with the Orlegi Group , owners of the red and black outfit. However, they must fight the soccer player with Monterrey , a club that also wants to acquire it in its squad.
EIGHT WOULD LEAVE AMERICA AND CAMILO VARGAS WOULD TAKE HIS PLACE! 🇲🇽⚽🧤🦅
According to @ RubSainz and @ rgtito , Memo Ochoa would be tempting for the MLS; He would talk with his family to accept or reject the offer 🇺🇲
