After the confirmation of the departures of Andrés Ibargüen and Roger Martínez, Club America is already thinking in five replacements for them, all of them skilled players who can easily find the net.

After Club America's president Santiago Baños declared the Colombian players Andrés Ibargüen and Roger Martínez will leave the team soon, the Club America's board started searching replacements. And they found there are five different options to start negotiating. These five options are all South American skilled players that could make a revolution in Liga MX with no much effort. Let's see:

-Luis Quiñones: This Colombian 29-year-old winger relies on his pace to build his explosive styles. After a good season with Tigres UANL, he did not renew his contract and Club America might be able of signing him for free. 

-Ricardo Centurión: He already knows Mexican soccer, given he played for Atlético San Luis last year. He performed well in the last Argentinian league with Vélez, but some past troubles with the press would be a good reason for him to join Club America.

-Thiago Almada: the best of the pick. Another star of Vélez, at 19 years old he is a no brainer in the Argentina youth teams. Club America should hurry to pay his release clause of 20 million dollars, before some European top club snubs him first.

-Derlis González: This skillful striker is at the peak of his career and after so many great performances with Paraguayan national team, he wants to fight among the big ones. Last year he joined his beloved Olimpia looking for trophies, but his plan did not work and wants his career to have a step up. Club América is the ideal place for him.

-Nicolás De la Cruz: At 23 years old, he became a starter of the Uruguayan national team and has been key for River Plate, one of the best in South America. He has the pace and the dribbling skills needed to achieve big things. And he would be cheap to get given River Plate has a little share of his rights. He is ideal to link up with Giovanni Dos Santos and together, they might easily tear up Liga MX.

But where would Ibargüen and Martínez go?

Firstly, Andrés Ibargüen could be the earliest of them in leaving. Club America is trying to get rid of him as soon as possible as he was offered to Toluca. In the other hand, Roger Martínez will be a starter today versus Atlanta United for CONCACAF Champions League, so they are expecting him to perform and attract some new club for him.
