Omar Bravo

For many years Omar Bravo was Chivas de Guadalajara's poster boy. The Sinaloa native was one of the first top prospects to come out of the club's newly restructured Youth System. And after seven years at the Guadalajara institition Bravo etched his name in the club's history annals by becoming the first Chivas player, in over 50 years, to win a league goal-scoring title and the second Guadalajara striker to score 100 goals; only behind legend Salvador Reyes who has 122 goals.

Bravo, believing that he had already completed his cycle with Guadalajara, decided to try his luck abroad and signed for La Liga outfit Deportivo La Coruna. The move would prove to be disasterous and the striker would soon have a devastating drop in form turning him into a shadow of his former self. Bravo's loan to relegation threatened Tigres only worsen his condition and the striker now finds himself without an idea of what the future holds for him.

The Gold Cup was supposed to help Barvo regain his form and serve as a showcase for interested clubs. That however never happened and Bravo after only making two appearances dissapeared from the Tricolor line up. Rumors of a possible injury abound but nothing has been confirmed. Deportivo La Coruna boss Miguel Angel Lotina does not want the player and his chances of returning to Mexico appear to be slim to none. Where ever Bravo ends up I can only wish him luck.
