One of the best offseason acquisitions to date in the 2019 Major League Soccer season has been the loan of Uriel Antuna to the LA Galaxy via Manchester City. The Mexican international has been a regular starter for the Galaxy and is one of their most consistent performers.
Due to his impressive run of form with the Galaxy, Antuna garnered attention from Tata Martino and the senior Mexican National Team coaching staff. He was not slated to be a selection for Mexico’s Gold Cup squad, however, he got the call-up just the day prior to the opening match against Cuba.
