However, in this summer transfer window, Jaime Ordiales, sporting director, has not been able to close any reinforcements for the Cementeros. Names such as Jonathan Rodríguez, Orbelín Pineda and Carlos González have slipped through their fingers.
That is why Diego Aguirre will have to strengthen the quality of the current strikers, who are Santiago Giménez and Iván Morales, so both players will be responsible for scoring goals.
Santiago Giménez is the new "9"
The striker, born in Buenos Aires but naturalized Mexican, changed his shirt number from 29 to 9, which shows the young player that he wants to have the responsibility of being Cruz Azul's goal scorer.
