The center back says players need to fight back against the Mexican system more often for their own benefit as well as that of the national team
For years, Mexican football players have complained that no one defends their rights.
The existence of the “Draft,” the ‘pacto de caballeros’ within club owners and the lack of a players’ union all are proof of it. And while there is now a fledgling players' union, there's still plenty of room for improvement.
Oswaldo Alanis, now a defender with Real Oviedo, is proof of that. But, he said, a player eventually becomes beaten down playing in Liga MX and can forget his value after being subjected to so many of the quirks of the Mexican game.
