The Blue Cross Machine has just confirmed his third defeat to the Clausura 2021 with the loan from the Colombian midfielder Alex Castro to Atlético Nacional, just a year after they were hired by the Cementeros to face the Clausura 2020, along with Lucas Passerini, Jonathan Borja, Lucas Passerini, Sebastián Jurado and Luis Romo.
Of those six reinforcements, three are no longer on Cruz Azul’s squad, as Lucas Passerini was loaned out six months ago, while Borja ended his assignment with the Celestial.
