Luuk De Jong could pave the way for Cruz Azul to sign a striker

Cruz Azul showed in its first preseason match a lack of punch. Without Santiago Giménez, Uriel Antuna and Carlos González, the Cementero squad lacks punch in attack. In addition, the loss of Bryan Angulo in the middle of the previous semester and the lack of a replacement have caused the team to miss another striker.

As a result, all eyes in this transfer market are on Carlos González, a Tigres UANL player whom the Universitarios have put up for sale. However, although there was interest from La Máquina, the interference of Toluca ended up discarding the opportunity to sign him.

However, the Red Devils seem to have changed their target: Luuk De Jong, a Dutch striker who played last season for FC Barcelona and whose contract belongs to Sevilla, is on the list of possible signings to arrive at the Nemesio Diez.

According to different media reports, Toluca has already made its intentions known to the Sevillian team, so now it is only a matter of waiting to know the resolution of the case. De Jong will not remain in the Andalusian club, and this offer from Liga MX is above many that have come to the Sevillian offices.

With all their chips on Luuk, Toluca would get out of the bidding for Charly González. Now, Cruz Azul has one less rival in the fight for one of the most sought-after strikers in all of Aztec football.
