Already 34 years old, thinking about Carlos Vela playing in Mexican soccer seems increasingly unlikely, but the people at home, his brothers Alejandro and Enrique, keep the hope alive that it could happen, although it would be under a very special condition. , that of working together in Cancun.
In Mexico I would only play in Cancun
In view of Carlos playing a new MLS final with LAFC, Alejandro, who played for Cruz Azul, Chivas and Atlante, among other clubs, pointed out that the only scenario he sees feasible is for the Iguanas to achieve promotion to the Liga MX as soon as possible, so that he can think about returning to the country, where he has never played as a professional.
“It’s very complicated if I’m honest. I think the only possibility would be for Cancún FC to be promoted soon and be able to give us six months or a year here,” he said when attending the Premier League International Tournament being played in the aforementioned city of Mexican Caribbean.
Enrique, the eldest of the Vela Garrido family and today coach of the Premier League Pioneers, assured that he has told the LAFC player to give him his “last year”, an illusion that will remain until the moment he officially announces his goodbye from the courts. It will be difficult, he admits it, but he can only think that ‘I hope it can happen’.
“In the end it is a dream, let’s be honest, Carlos is making his career. I wish he would dare to give us his last year here. We have talked about it at family meals and dinners. Carlos has a contract, but I wish it could be done. It’s difficult, but until he says he’s hanging up his boots, it won’t be possible.”
A year full of successes in the Vela family
On Sunday night, Alejandro celebrated his first title as director of sports operations at Cancún FC, while Carlos is one step away from achieving the two-time MLS Championship, two reasons to celebrate in the family, although they are not the only cases of success, as Cristo lifted the Next Pro Cup crown with development league team Austin FC II.
“One is happy to see that in different areas, because not only the well-being of Alex and Carlos is desired, but also Christ, who comes from being champion with Austin, the league of new values of the MLS. One would also like to be in a Final, I have already been in two semifinals, also in the third division. I hope it happens to me,” Enrique added.
