Henry Martín will end his career with América or at least that is the intention of the Yucatecan forward, who after a long dispute of push and pull, will finally sign his renewal with the Águilas, in an amount close to $10 million dollars (around $170 million pesos) for the next three seasons, which will undoubtedly consolidate the future of his family.
The board of America after analyzing the pros and cons of renewing a player over 30 years olddetermined to support the continuity of his captain and maximum reference in the attack, granting him the vote of confidence so that Martín concentrates only on trying to surpass his numbers that have currently made him one of the figures of the Coapa team.
The renewal of Henry Martín’s contract occurs at a time when public opinion is divided into opinions, if in truth the Yucatecan striker has the arguments to be labeled as an Águilas legend. In the coldness of the numbers we could say yes, since Martín has surpassed in goals players with the same collective emblems as him, such as Carlos Reinoso, Salvador Cabañas and Carlos Hermosillo.
For the American leaders, it was undoubtedly important to see the development of their greatest forward who He has just scored 100 goals as a striker for the controversial millioneta team and with these numbers he surpassed such emblematic players as the Chilean Carlos Reinoso, the Paraguayan Salvador Cabañas and Carlos Hermosillo, who registered 99, 98 and 94 goals respectively in their careers.
Henry Martín is in the seventh place of the greatest scorers of the American team, only surpassed for the 188 of Luis Roberto Alves “Zaguinho”, the 153 of Cuauhtémoc Blanco, 152 of Octavio Vial, 109 by José Alves “The Lone Wolf” and Zaguinho’s father, 104 by Enrique Borja and 101 by Enrique González Palmer.
Without a doubt all these numbers, as well as having been one of the important axes of the conquest of the title 14 of this organization in the history of Mexican soccer, It was going to be almost impossible for them to get rid of a player of this category, who in seven years of experience with América after a spell with the Venados de Yucatán and Xolos de Tijuana, went from less to more in the most controversial team in soccer. Mexican until earning a place as an immovable starter in the starting eleven.
With this the rumors end of a possible migration to Major League Soccer (MLS) where he had been linked to the new San Diego FC franchise or in Arab football, where truly stratospheric figures were used, but which undoubtedly corresponded to the quality and category of the striker.
Obviously, the closing of the negotiation is a point in favor for the Mexican forwards in a time where Mexican teams prefer to bet on foreign talent than support the emergence of new Aztec stars in the MX League and where with the continuity of Henry Martín It also favors the present of the Mexican National Team.
