The America strikers who are no longer in Fernando Ortiz's plans for the Apertura 2022

The loss to Club Pachuca in the semifinal of the Fiesta Grande of the Torneo Grita México Clausura 2022 of Liga MX, marked a before and after, for better and for worse, for several protagonists of the main men's team of the Águilas del América. One of them is Fernando Ortiz who, after the leading role he played, earned the confidence to continue in the coaching position.

As for the roster, it is presumed that there could be movements, mainly with some players who are already considered to have completed their cycles. In this group, there are two members of the Azulcrema team with offensive characteristics, who will no longer be in the Nido for the start of the Apertura Tournament, the only official championship that El Tano will have in his second-semester program.

Who would be discarded by El Tano?

They would be both Mauro Lainez and Henry Martin. On the one hand, Diego's brother (who is rumored to be returning to the club to resume his career because he would not have a place at Real Betis), with several intermittencies during the first part of the year, is one of the most likely names to leave the Águilas in the upcoming summer transfer window.

Meanwhile, according to a report by ESPN's John Sutcliffe, the striker who is usually called up by Gerardo Martino for Mexico's national team matches, Club America's top management has already made the first attempts to place him in other teams.

Who would they bring in their place?

On the morning of Monday, May 23, it was reported that América had asked for former Atlético de Madrid player Luis Suárez. The Uruguayan himself clarified his intention in a conversation with Cadena Ser of Spain: "I have received many proposals. Clubs from Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico have approached me, but I want to return to play at the highest competitive level. I am focused on European soccer".
