Alexis Vega
28-Year-Old
Toluca
Liga MX
Busy in nine-minute outing Sunday
Vega recorded two shots (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 3-1 victory versus FC Juarez.
ANALYSIS
Vega was fit enough only for a limited appearance in his return from a significant knee issue, but he delivered immediate playmaking output as he took plenty of set pieces against Bravos. He'll be an option for the next few league and CONCACAF matches before leaving to work with the Mexican national team at some point in the final stretch of the season. If he can eventually get close to his Apertura averages of 2.1 shots (0.6 on goal) and 3.3 chances created per game, Vega should offer high attacking upside in most fixtures. His inclusion will also limit Pavel Perez, Jorge Diaz and Sebastian Cordova to smaller roles while taking set pieces away from Jesus Ricardo Angulo and Helinho.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Wants to leave Liga MX
Vega does not want to play for Chivas in the 2023 Torneo Clausura and is pushing for a transfer to Europe, Enrique Pacheco of SoyFutbol reports.
ANALYSIS
Vega is pushing hard to play in Europe, but no real offers have been submitted for the Mexico international. With that in mind, Chivas has lowered his asking price, and if they're asking for $15 million for other Liga MX teams that want him, European clubs would "only" have to pay $4 million to sign the winger. Vega featured in all three matches for El Tri during the 2022 World Cup.
