Alexis Vega could have joined Cruz Azul, but for this reason, he did not

For the 2022 Apertura, Cruz Azul was willing to open its wallet and it is a reality because before Alexis Vega renewed his contract with Chivas, the Celestes had offered him a lucrative proposal to reunite with his former teammate Uriel Antuna, but in the end, he didn't take it.

The Toque Filtrado column reportedly revealed that the Cementeros were the same ones who prevented Vega from leaving the Rebaño, as the rojiblanca board felt pressure and had to act quickly and offer him a contract renewal to prevent them from taking him to La Noria.

"The medal for Alexis Vega's renewal with Chivas is not entirely to Ricardo Peláez's credit, as the Celeste board approached him to make him a higher offer than the one he had with the Rebaño. This caused Pelaez to accelerate the talks to prevent La Maquina from convincing the striker and snatching him away from the Rebaño", reads the column.

Was Alexis Vega a Cruz Azul fan?

It is unknown, but a few days ago some Facebook posts were leaked where Alexis Vega, before being a professional soccer player, had written something in favor of Cruz Azul through an image that said "Cruz Azul is not for cowards", which aroused the concern and even annoyance of some Chivas fans.

It should be noted that Vega started playing soccer at Pumas, but was cut at 15 and later had to continue his career at Toluca, where he managed to debut in the First Division thanks to the trust he was given and that thanks to the fruit of his work, in 2018 Chivas signed him and will keep him for a few more years.
