Álvaro Fidalgo ‘gave’ his shirt number to Carlos Sánchez | OneFootball

Carlos Sánchez arrived at Club América from Levante UD in a signing that surprised everyone, since we are talking about a player who had several offers to remain in European football.

But the now Águilas player confessed that he spoke with “Maguito” Fidalgo, whom he actually did not know, but he wanted to ask him about what life is like in Mexico and whether playing for Club América was the right move.

Without hesitation, Álvaro Fidalgo told him it was the ideal place for him and strongly recommended that he join América, an opinion that Carlos took very seriously in deciding to accept América’s offer.

Álvaro “handed over” his shirt number.

Through a video published by Club América’s official account, “Maguito” spoke with Carlos Sánchez to give him the number EIGHT, making it clear that it belongs to Carlos Reinoso, but that they were passing it on to him so he could write another chapter with that iconic number.

Meanwhile, Carlos thanked him for the gesture and said he would wear the number with pride and give everything to live up to a shirt number worn by two América legends such as “Maestro” Reinoso and “Maguito” Fidalgo.
