The novel by Uruguayan Jonathan “Cabecita” Rodríguez, r regarding his signing with the Portland Timbers of Major League Soccer (MLS) lived another chapter this Saturday, when the striker appeared in the Águilas U23 team led by Diego Cervantes against the UANL Tigres, where they ended up tying with a score of 1-1, in a duel held at the Coapa facilities, located in the south of Mexico City.
Rodríguez who had supposedly decided to join André Jardine’s project again to fight for a starting position with Henry Martin, the naturalized Mexican Julián Quiñones, Illián Hernández, the Uruguayan Brian Rodríguez and the Dutch Javairo Dilrosun, he finally backed down and decided to leave the first team.
To show a button in the U23 duel where the Uruguayan saw action, but he could not register any score, actively waiting for the negotiation with the Oregon city team to resume or he would definitely have to wait until the end of the tournament to seek accommodation with the other team.
The goals of the match were scored by the locals, Bruce El-mesmari, and by the visitors, Diego Sánchez.
Erasure from the first team
The so-called “Cabecita” has definitely been erased from the first team, since since the previous week against Atlas he was not taken into account by the group that faced the rojinegros on date 10 of Clausura 2024 and neither did the Chivas del Guadalajara in the match first leg of the round of 16 of the Concachampions.
Rodríguez has no other way than to resume negotiations with the Portland Timbers or with any other MLS team, taking into account that the Oregon team was also unable to close the signing of the Argentine Germán Berterame from Monterrey and perhaps this is the key that opens the door in American soccer for the Uruguayan striker.
In this way, we will have to wait for the outcome of this novel in which the Charría soccer player increasingly appears determined to leave America, aware that his soccer capacity is beyond being a substitute in the American team.
