The 30-year-old defender arrived at León for the Apertura 2015 and played 76 games, 72 of them as a starter, in addition to scoring six goals. The player's destination could be Boca Juniors, or possibly a club in the MLS.
"My contract with León has ended and I'm considering where I can go. If Boca comes looking for me, I wouldn't hesitate, but I know they will look for the best," he recently declared for the radio program 'Punto Boca' in his home country.
Our gratitude to you, @burdissoguille3. We recognize your dedication, passion, and professionalism when defending these colors.
