The Club América has problems in the wing area since Jorge Sánchez left for Europe, that is why from that moment the board of directors of the azulcrema team tried to take to the now side of the LA Galaxy, Julián Araujo, to his ranks in Mexico.
According to the journalist Lizzy Becharano, even the same Fernando “Tano” OrtizAmerican team coach communicated directly with the LA Galaxy player when in America they sought to strengthen that area of the field.
“We lack a little right back, It is something we have talked about, it is a position that we must reinforce”, Fernando Ortiz said at a press conference after the last collective vacation taken by the team and before starting the preseason.
It is for this reason that the American team insisted a lot on Araujo’s arrival in Mexico. However, by not achieving this goal, ‘Tano’ opted for with the youthful Emilio Lara, who in the first instance will repeat in the Clausura 2023 as a starter for the current tournament in Liga MX.
Araujo, born in United States territory, but of Mexican parents, he decided to play with ‘El Tri’ ahead of the Qatar 2022 World Cupand although it was considered by Gerardo ‘Tata’ Martino for a long time by the Argentine strategist, ended up outside of the final summons delivered by the quarterback.
For his part, defender Kevin Álvarez from Pachuca was the one who ended up winning the race for a spot on the final roster for the World Cup held in Qatar in 2022.
