“Thank God I was given the opportunity to choose the number. I started with the number 25 and when I got to Motagua I wanted to use it, but (Marlon) Licona had it and it wasn’t given to me. I used the number 18 on “Dear, because I admire Marvin Chávez. Now I said I want to continue with number 18 because Marvin played here and for me it’s a privilege,” he said.
His expectations with Monstro Verde are high, he promises them to the fans he delivers.
“It gives me the opportunity to continue to be a player, the desire will not be lacking. Instead of infecting the group, believe me they are the ones infecting me,” he added.
Crisanto is a specialist in sending centers to the area and now it will be his turn to feed the Argentine Rydyan Palermo. What were they talking about?
“I exchanged words with Palermo and, despite the fact that things didn’t work out for him, he struggles a lot at work, which shows that he wants to. He is a foreigner and, although things didn’t work out, he believes that his group also announces that he is a good player, that he can do things well in these six months, I take advantage of that, my strengths are the centers, that he knows me and I know him so that we can both do well.
Come with experience and take responsibility

“Now I come as a leader. With Victoria I always fought with leagues. With Motagua I won games and titles, the route did not have it when I arrived in Motagua, I was young and I thought differently. But now I come with other expectations, the teacher had trust me and I’m ready. I’m not that young man anymore, now the responsibility goes through me and I take it on, “he concluded.
