The midfielder has been key to Santos' turnaround and will need to influence Sunday's match if Los Guerreros are going to lift the trophy
Santos Laguna is one game away from its sixth Liga MX title. Whether or not it lifts the trophy will depend largely on the work of a winter arrival: Jose Juan Vazquez, better known as "Gallito".
It was a role reversal when Gallito flew north to Torreon with Santos moving two prospects to Chivas and the 30-year-old Vazquez going the other way. Generally Santos develops talents and moves them along once they're ready for a bigger club, getting cash or more young players in exchange.
