On the day of his 35th birthday, Carlos Vela has already decided his next destination as a professional soccer player, and it will not be in Liga MX, since he will remain in MLS and in California.
However, it will not be with LAFC either, since the ‘Bomber’ will sign with San Jose Earthquakes, as Fernando Cevallos announced in La Última Palabra.
“Carlos Vela is not coming to Mexico, he will stay in MLS. He will be announced tomorrow (today) and will stay in California; but with San Jose Earthquakes, he will not continue in LAFC nor will he go to the Galaxy because they are a fierce rival”, revealed the journalist in FOX Sports.
If the information is confirmed, the Cancun native would become Cade Cowell’s replacement in the Californian team, with the difference being that he will arrive as a designated player.
Finally, Fernando Cevallos sent a message to Chivas fans, who dreamed of seeing Carlos Vela wearing the red and white jersey: “I didn’t expect him to return to Mexico, I didn’t see him, because he didn’t want to play here.”
Carlos Vela to Chivas?
It should be remembered that the ‘Bombardero’ was rumored to be one of the ‘big signings’ of Club Guadalajara for the Clausura 2024, who finished his contract, and did not renew, with LAFC.
Rumors circulated regarding Vela’s arrival to Liga MX, especially after the departure of Alexis Vega, who opened up the ’10’ shirt and saved the ‘Rebaño Sagrado’ a lot of money.
However, it seems that this isn’t happening, since Carlos Vela will stay in the MLS (San Jose Earthquakes), and forget about the club that saw him born as a footballer, with which he never debuted in the first division.
It should be remembered that the ‘Bombardero’ is a Chivas youth player, but he emigrated to Europe after winning the Under-17 World Cup with Mexico in Peru 2005, when he was signed by Arsenal.
