The arrival of Landon Donovan to Liga MX has more than one reason to make us happy, here are some to celebrate that the 'Captain America' will play with León.

After making official the arrival of Landon Donovan to León, some fans questioned the club's decision due to his past and being one of the most 'hated' footballers in the country; however, there are many others who are happy about this arrival. That's why here we tell you some reasons why we should be happy about the arrival of 'Captain America' to our league.

International-level footballer

Landon has always shown his professionalism as a footballer. Prior to retiring, the player was always seen as intelligent when attacking, committed to recovering a ball, and was a 'killer' inside the box. Donovan wore the LA Galaxy jersey for most of his career, but in his resume, he can boast having represented Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, and Everton in England. In addition, the player is the top scorer for his national team and holds the record for most goals in MLS.

Coming out of retirement to play in Liga MX

Landon Donovan is a player who has absolutely nothing to prove since he is a legend and idol of football in his country; however, the player decided to come and play in our league. It is well known that Landon made a lot of money playing in the MLS, which is why the player did not come in search of money.

He knows that this league is much better than the one in his country and understands that it is an important challenge, especially considering that he has not played professionally for some time. In the first few months, it is very likely that he will have difficulty adapting, but his great professionalism will allow him to give great proof of quality on the Mexican fields.

Generated empathy with Mexican fans

It is well known that Landon Donovan is not the most beloved by Mexican fans, more for sporting reasons than personal ones, as the player always performed well in important moments against our national team. Despite that, some Mexican football lovers are identifying with the player since he has written tweets recently with the intention of breaking the ice. The first and most important one was when it was announced that he was coming to play with León, where the player wrote: "I don't believe in walls, I want to go to Mexico, dress in green, and win trophies with León". After the controversy with the president of the United States, Landon gained many followers in the country. 'Captain America' also joked about needing oxygen tanks for his return to the field. "Do you have oxygen tanks ready for me?" the León player wrote.
