América may already have decided Raphael Veiga's future | OneFootball

Raphael Veiga arrived at Club América at the beginning of this year, in one of the few signings André Jardine was able to make during his time at Club América.

His first tournament only had a few flashes, clearly showing that he was struggling to adapt to Liga MX, something normal for a player who spent his entire career in Brazil’s Serie A.

With André Jardine’s departure, many thought Veiga would not stay with the team, as they believed he did not fit into the system Guillermo Almada proposes with a very vertical style, but contrary to that he has become an undisputed starter and has been one of the team’s best players so far this tournament.

Will he stay at Club América?

It is worth remembering that Veiga joined the team on a one-year loan with a purchase option worth around 7 million dollars. That loan will end at the end of the year, so the club’s management has to make a decision regarding his future.

Reports in Brazil indicate that América’s board is happy with the player and that the plan is to buy his rights, but the final word will be up to the player, since it is said that his intention was to return to Palmeiras in Brazil.

We will have to see what happens. They still have a few months to decide what to do, but from a footballing standpoint, paying for his rights and keeping him at Club América for several more years would be a great move.
