Cristian Pavon was on loan to the LA Galaxy from Boca Juniors with a purchase option, but the Los Angeles club is not willing to pay $ 20 million to keep the player. Pavon must return to Argentina but it is known that he has offers from Europe. For its part, LA Galaxy would already be in talks for a Liga MX forward.

LA Galaxy will miss Cristian Pavon like it did Ibrahimovic but can't invest that much money into him. Pavon was one of the favorite players in the franchise and after Ibrahimovic he was the one who sold the most jerseys in Los Angeles. LA Galaxy must find another Designated Player that generates the same as Pavon generated.

One of the players who would be interested in LA Galaxy is Federico Viñas. The American forward is one of the best players in Liga MX and that's why LA Galaxy has already set its eyes on him. Today the young Uruguayan forward does not have a great market value for the conditions he has as a player. America would lose one of its best players if this is confirmed.

Viñas, according to Transfermarket, has a current value of $ 3 million. If we compare what Viñas is worth to what LA Galaxy should have paid for Pavon, the Los Angeles team would be saving more than $ 15 million. Viñas' move to MLS could be a preliminary step for his great desire, which is to go to Europe.
