If a Mexican striker has all the ballots to return to the highest competition in Europe, that is Carlos Vela.
To your 33 years, the forward of Los Angeles FC of the MLS did not go through a good moment, but there’s no denying how well the campaign started 2022 with three goals against Colorado Rapids.
For this reason the current coach of Mallorca in the Spanish La Liga, Javier Aguirre, would be probing to hire the ‘Bombardier’ in the market summer, once the season is over and I achieved his goal of saving the club from relegation.
Some Spanish media are already talking about the rumor that if Aguirre In order to keep Mallorca in the first division (they are second to last), the Balearic board would make the effort to fulfill them with the players they request for their project.

Candle arrived in 2018 to Los Angeles to be the face of a nascent franchise, the LAFC; he was called to be the figure and was even given the team captain’s armband.
As the face of a new project, his salary was set at one of the highest amounts in the North American league, nothing more and nothing less than $6 million; however, his contract ends in the summer .
The journalist from ESPN, Mauricio Pedroza, warned that Vela would be thinking of leaving the United States , where he and his family are well off, but only if the offer that arrives from Europe equals or exceeds what he currently has .
