The Liga MX started with exciting matches. But the teams continue to make incorporation is facing the Opening 2021 . One of the clubs that has been strengthened the most has been Juárez FC . The border team have made good additions to their squad and this week they brought in an international striker. Gabriel Fernández arrives in Mexico from Celta de Vigo of Spain.

For this new Mexican tournament, Juárez will seek to be a stone in the shoe for all teams. The border team has been reinforced quite well and its latest addition comes to eradicate one of the biggest shortcomings of last season: the goal.

The Uruguayan Gabriel Fernández arrives at Ricardo Ferretti’s team with a good letter of introduction. The forward was trained at Defensor Sporting, Racing Club and the historic Peñarol . His great performances captured the attention of Europe, especially of Celta de Vigo , a team with which he signed in 2019.

However, the striker of 27 years of age was loaned to Real Zaragoza of the second division of Spain . In this last club, the forward had a quite acceptable campaign, but his future brought him to Mexican football so that he was under the command of “Tuca”.

Fernández is responsible for the goal in Juárez

The footballer “Charrúa” must leave behind a terrible statistic that affected the club notoriously last season. Juárez finished in the penultimate position of the table, in part, this was the result of a huge lack of goal. The Aztec team could barely score 13 goals in 17 matches.

A priori this does not seem to be an objective so far from reality for the Uruguayan. Fernández was crowned the top scorer in the seasons of 2016 Y 2018 of Uruguayan soccer.

In this sense, Juárez FC will try to wash its image after a terrible campaign last season. However, the fans and the club’s board are betting on a totally radical change from the hand of a coach more than proven in Mexican soccer such as Ricardo Ferretti.
