Castillo’s current market value is $ 905,435, according to Transfermarkt.
After the lethargy of the soccer market for Christmas, the telephones of the leaders of Barcelona SC do not stop ringing again. On Monday it was the turn of the Canarian vice president, Aquiles Álvarez, to rule out a supposed millionaire offer from the Pachuca group for the side Bryon Castillo.
“That is an urban legend, a proposal of those has not arrived, there is nothing formal by Byron,” said Álvarez in dialogue with Machdeportes.
As the opening of the winter window approaches to be able to sign, rumors grow in Ecuador and Mexico about the future of the 23-year-old Ecuadorian international.
The León Club of Liga MX, where Ángel Mena plays, was the team targeted as a destination for Castillo, with an amount of 6.5 million dollars.

The newspaper The Sun of Leon, from Guanajuato, said on Monday that León made a “first offer” for the Ecuadorian side, however, this would not have convinced the board of directors “of Barcelona SC, from where it is assured that it is a rumor.
In fact, unofficially it turned out that the yellow team has asked for about $ 7 million for the side pass; and that in addition to La Fiera, Palmeiras, the champion of the Copa Libertadores, also showed some interest in bringing the tricolor to their ranks.
However, Aquiles Álvarez made it clear that the Canarian institution needs to make income, so they do not close the doors to the sale of Castillo, as well as that of other important players on the payroll.
“There are our intentions to sell as always because it is a reality that we need to do so,” said the manager.
Meanwhile, add The Sun of Leon, the León Club will insist once again on the former Deportivo Azogues and Aucas player, although it is a reality that coach Ariel Holan and the Verdiblanca board chaired by Jesús Martínez Murguía also have other options.
In early December Castillo was chosen for the ideal eleven of the Libertadores-2021.
The one from Playas was the only one that broke the hegemony of the Brazilian teams, who stayed with the rest of the formation. (D)
