Through their social networks, Santos from Brazil confirmed the signing of Ecuadorian striker Bryan Angulo, who leaves the Mexican Cruz Azul. ”The hiring occurs with three years of ‘delay’ and with much lower values”, with this information, the digital portal LOU of Brazil announced the incorporation of the tricolor.
“In 2019, under the command of President José Carlos Peres, Santos looked for the player, at that time Emelec’s top scorer. The request was frightening: $26 million reais. ‘Emelec is asking for $7 million dollars ($25.9 million reais, at the price of the time), and 70% of the economic rights,’ Peres said at the time”, reports the Brazilian media.
He also recalled that “six months after this attempt to Fish, Emelec sold the rights to Bryan Angulo to Cruz Azul for $5.5 million (about $20.4 million reais). He did not live up to expectations, he was loaned to Tijuana, also from Mexico, in 2020, and now he left for free. Angulo had a contract with the Mexican team until June and tried to be released early “, since the player was rejected by the fans for his poor performance.
Angulo gave up a prize and two salaries to terminate and be free to sign for Santos until June 2023, with a renewal clause for another year, according to LOU.
To get the services of the tricolor, “Santos will pay commissions diluted in salaries. This ‘package’ should cost around 500,000 reais per month, that is, about 107,000 dollars per month.
“The board understood that, as there are no purchase values involved, the investment is worth it. Bryan Angulo was the favorite of coach Fabián Bustos for the role of center forward”. (I)
