Julio Furch already took a decision about Club América’s offer to sign him for Apertura 2022

The Colombian was fundamental in Atlas' two-time championship and, after winning the second title, he hinted at his farewell.

"Thank you for everything you appreciated with my family, I felt good, I will always be grateful to you, I love you very much," he commented.

Julián Quiñones already knows the soccer environment in the Sultana del Norte after his time with Tigres, but then he joined Atlas, a team with which he won the Apertura 2021, Clausura 2022, and the Campeón de Campeones, being a key player in Diego Cocca's team.

America, who were interested in the Colombian, will not take him and will continue looking for a striker to improve their goal-scoring effectiveness, given that Henry Martin and Federico Viñas have not performed well enough.

Julian Quiñones' career in Mexico

If the operation is completed, Quiñones would return to the city that opened the doors to Mexican soccer for him. In the 2015 Apertura, he joined Tigres, but during that semester he was registered in the U-20 category of the Nuevo León team.

In the 2016 Clausura, he moved to Venados but returned to the felines for the Apertura 2016 and Clausura 2017, a year in which, in addition to making his debut in the maximum circuit, he won his first two championships in Mexico, a Campeón de Campeones and a Liga MX.

Although he played minutes in Tigres' stellar squad, the team from Monterrey loaned him to Lobos BUAP, where he began to shine in the maximum circuit of Mexican soccer.

The level he showed in the Puebla team brought him back to Tigres for the 2018 Apertura. That stage with the felines ended in the Guard1anes Clausura 2021, but he left with two more titles, another Campeón de Campeones and another Liga MX.

He joined Atlas for the Apertura 2021. With Los Tapatíos he immediately became a fundamental piece for Diego Cocca. In the first semester he was important in ending the 70-year title drought of the red-and-black team, the same label he maintained for the Clausura 2022, in which they were proclaimed two-time champions.
