Erik Lira: My mind was and is only on Cruz Azul
This Thursday, Erik Lira's renewal with Cruz Azul was confirmed. The player signed an extension with La Máquina until 2029, just before the 2026 World Cup, which will be played at home.
When asked why he renewed with Cruz Azul, "El Jefecito" exclusively told OneFootball: "It's the right time to extend the bond, from the first minute I felt at home. I am very happy to stay with Cruz Azul for a long time."
Before his contract extension, various media linked Lira to Liga MX clubs like Chivas, Tigres, and even European football, but he denied such approaches.
"I never knew if the interest was real, my mind was and still is only on Cruz Azul right now," he stated.
Erik joined Cruz Azul in January 2022 from Pumas and has become one of the team's current key figures, not only on the field but also by increasing his market value to 8 million euros, according to Transfermarkt.
