Chivas' Omar Bravo is the latest New Spain footballer to head to the Old World, and Gancho wishes him luck. There are now four European clubs with two Mexicans on the roster: Stuttgart (Osorio and Pavel), Barcelona (Rafa and Gio), PSV Eindhoven (Salcido and Masa), and Coruña (Guardado and now Bravo). Arsenal's Carlos Vela and Man City's Nery Castillo bring the total to ten Mexicans playing in Europe. (Am I forgetting anyone?) Unfortunately, the sporadically dominant Bravo is the second key member of Las Chivas Rayadas de Guadalajara to take off since the season ended, Masa Rodríguez being the other. Time to reload.

Thank you for your nice blog: Yes you left out: Carlos Vela (Osasuan, Spain): Guillermo Franco (Villareal, Spain); Hector Moreno (Az Amaar, Holand); Antonio de Nigris (Ankaraspor, Turkey). In addition there are several players in MLS and in Peru. Thre is a nice site on ESPN that tracks all Mexican players and their performance on a weekly basis: the link is: http://espndeportes-akamai.espn.go.com/news/story?id=589069&page=story
