The Paraguayan, a member of the team led by Guillermo Barros Schelotto, had an advanced negotiation with Cruzeiro from Brazil, but finally decided on the offer of the Argentine club.
According to the Paraguayan press, the call of Vice President Juan Román Riquelme to Valdez was key to the change of plans. Although the defender had a contract with América until the middle of the year, but there was no progress for the renewal and he terminated by mutual agreement, since the club needed to free up a foreign quota.
The Paraguayan who emerged from Sol de América came to Mexican soccer in 2016 after a great stint at Cerro Porteño. The defender, who can play both positions in the central defense and even as a right back, has made 240 appearances as a professional and another 32 as an international for Paraguay.

“Today I was telling Bruno that every time we have a Paraguayan we are filled with emotion and affection. At some point in history, our country was the protagonist of an unjust war, which was that of the Triple Alliance, and I apologized for the past. We hereby want to help you and thank you very much. I know that you abandoned a very important contract to come and play in Boca, that is very important so that everyone knows that it was Brazilian football. That he feels at home, he has plenty of conditions as a player. Let’s hope that in the short term it begins to give us the satisfaction that we all want”.
