One of Cruz Azul’s great objectives for 2024 is to once once more be protagonists of Liga MX and to achieve that goal, very strong decisions were made. Firstly, the board gave Iván Alonso the confidence to become sports director and thus develop his ambitious project. And secondly, the hiring of Martín Anselmi for technical direction was confirmed.

Although the arrival of the Argentine coach had been known for several weeks, there were many doubts around him. Beyond the fact that in Independiente del Valle he did a spectacular job, only in Cruz Azul will he have the challenge of being at the head of a great institution. At the same time, a curious issue had to do with the criticism from a sector of the fans towards Anselmi related to the fact that before becoming a coach, he graduated as a journalist.

Upon his arrival in Mexico City, the Argentine was asked what he thought of this question and he responded with great heights: “The truth is that I don’t know that sector of the fans. The only thing I have received since the news broke that I am going to be Cruz Azul’s coach is a pure message of encouragement and hope. So I don’t know.”

The truth is that Anselmi has demonstrated great communication skills in every interview he gives when explaining his game model. Of course, this is also beneficial when talking to footballers, as it makes this aspect easier.. Therefore, there is a lot of expectation around what the Argentine can do ahead of Clausura 2024.

The goalkeeper that Martín Anselmi requested for Cruz Azul

One of the most controversial topics in the Cruz Azul transfer market has to do with the goal, because it is the key position to reinforce. While the board leaned more towards options like Camilo Vargas or Tiago Volpi, Iván Alonso’s priority has been Kevin Mier. However, upon his arrival at the club, Martín Anselmi requested the arrival of a name that was not on the list.

This is Moisés Ramírez, current goalkeeper of Independiente del Valle. The 23-year-old Ecuadorian has just made a huge mistake in the Pro League final, but even so he is a trusted man for the Argentine coach. So, ‘The Machine”s intention is to be able to close his signing as soon as possible to make the coach happy.

Gonzalo Piovi, another request from Martín Anselmi

Another of the footballers that Anselmi has been following for several months is Gonzalo Piovi, who has already arrived in Mexico City to sign his contract with Cruz Azul. The Argentine defender is a specialist in starting from the back and will be key for the coach to make the most of his style of play.. Furthermore, the departure of Carlos Salcedo opened a very important gap in the defense that had to be covered.
