Michael Rangel and Alexandre Guimaraes already coincided in America of Cali in 2019-20, when the ‘Red Devils’ won the closing tournament of the 2019 League. At that time, the 31-year-old striker showed his best version in Colombian football; he finished as a scorer with 13 goals and took a place in the ideal eleven of the semester.
After almost three years since that sweet memory of the title and after playing with Mazatlán from Liga MX and Deportes Tolima, Rangel’s door was opened again to wear red. His departure from Deportes Tolima, apparently due to indiscipline problems, left him without a team before the end of the year. The striker winks at the team, accompanying them in the stadium, and Guimaraes seems to have him in his sights.
According to the journalist Pipe Sierra, the situation of Michael Rangel for America is not entirely easy, beyond what the coach wants. Although the Santanderean is looking for a team for 2023 and seems to be willing to adjust some numbers, President Mauricio Romero would be in favor of other strikers who can sign.
And what does Tulio Gómez say? According to the journalist, the maximum shareholder of the red club “wants if the numbers adjust”, that is, Rangel must accept the salary that America is in a position to pay him. When he left Mexico and before being announced by Tolima, Tulio himself referred to the possibility that Michael would return to the scarlet team; he has never closed the door on her. The manager even said at the time that they talked constantly. Will it be this time?
“The striker is looking for a team. There is no agreement yet. Alexandre Guimarães asked for it. Tulio Gómez wants it if the numbers are adjusted. Maurício Romero believes that there are better options. It will be analyzed in a few months,” Sierra said through social networks, being consulted about the situation of Rangel and America.
