Cruz Azul felt the loss of Bryan Angulo at the end of the Clausura 2022 on their shoulders. Although the Ecuadorian striker was criticized by a large part of the fans, the truth is that 'Cuco' provided goals -or danger- in a team in which celebrations came in dribs and drabs in the last stretch of the competition.

In this scenario, it was Ángel Romero who took control of the Celeste offense and carried the weight of the attack. Although his numbers reflect only one goal in his first tournament with La Máquina's jersey, the truth is that it was from his feet that Cruz Azul's best chances in recent months were born.
As a result, a certain sector of the fans looked suspiciously at the Guaraní's contract, which expires next December and there have not yet been any approaches to renew it. However, the Asunción-born player has cooled the waters and declared in his native country that Cruz Azul will have priority when it comes to choosing his next destination.
"In the last few games playing with the 9, I felt more comfortable at Cruz Azul. I liked the Mexican league and what the club is like. I have a contract with Cruz Azul until December, if they want to renew it we have time to talk. After my vacation we will talk for sure", the striker confessed to the Paraguayan radio program Fútbol a lo Grande.
When different local media talked about the possibility of his arrival at La Noria, there were many reports that Boca Juniors would interfere in the negotiations, something that the player himself denied. "In January I spoke with Boca's people, it was not as they said, they only asked me about my situation and no official offer arrived", he remarked.
