Andrés Gudiño, Sebastián Jurado, Juan Escobar, Ignacio Rivero and Alexis Gutiérrez are the only “survivors” of the title of Blue Cross in Guardianes 2021. Since then, and following several tournaments played, the squad has been dismantled in such a way that only a few memories remain of that team in memory.
The evident disorder when it comes to planning has led to this coming and going of players who do not quite settle down. And what’s worse, everything seems to continue on the same path. And according to information published by ESPN in its edition this Wednesday, October 11, In Cruz Azul, another cleanup of the squad is coming for Clausura 2024 following the poor performance shown in this Opening 2023 from Liga MX.
“The sources consulted by ESPN assured that The board will hold a meeting this week to evaluate Moreno’s continuity and also to delve into the planning towards Clausura 2024specifically the players who will not continue on the team…”can be read in part of the information published on the ESPN website.
With Joaquin Moreno on a tightrope, and a group of footballers who have not been up to par, plus other elements who will return from their respective loans following not finding a place in the team, Cruz Azul will experience another very busy transfer market where an attempt will be made to improve what was done in the last sale, where hiring took longer than expected and the managers have been criticized.
What positions would Cruz Azul reinforce?

And there are several elements that have been owed this semester and that might be resolved; Others, however, might receive calls from Europe, the cases of Uriel Antuna and Rodrigo Huescas are the most likely in this section.

Players who will return from their respective assignments
But we will also have to consider those elements that will return from their assignments. Ramiro Carrera and Augusto Lotti are the two main cases. Both with long contracts, and with two of the highest salaries on the team, their returns will also depend on the tenant of the bench and their intentions to take advantage of them. The club still trusts them, but the performance of both, both in Lanús and Atlético Tucumán, respectively, is leaving much to be desired at this point in the season.
