América would be close to presenting its fifth reinforcement of the Apertura 2024. It is Cristian Borja who would already be tied with the Eagles following his adventure with Portugal. In this way, the left back would have his second stage in Liga MX following having played with Toluca years ago.
According to information from journalist César Merlo, Cristian Borja has already signed a contract with América. The 31-year-old player arrives as a free agent and will sign for three years with the Coapa team that seeks to populate that sector following the departures of Luis Fuentes, Salvador Reyes, Jonathan Rodríguez and Julián Quiñones.
The source says that the signing will be made official in the next few days, so the Colombian might land in Mexico City this week to work under André Jardine. The signing would be viable for the Azulcrema board since he would not have to pay anything as he is a free agent.
Borja arrives at América following his time in European football. In Portugal he played with Sporting Lisbon and then moved to Sporting Braga, while in Turkey he had a brief stint with Alanyaspor. The Colombian is remembered in Mexico for his time in Toluca where he played 41 games, scored one goal and gave three assists.
Aguirre is getting closer to America
On the other hand, Merlo also reported that Rodrigo Aguirre is regarding to become an eagle. After several days of negotiations, the signing would be finalized this week, as the blue-cream board would buy the forward’s pass, which would be signed until June 2027.
