Chivas Guadalajara Transfer News: Fidel Kuri Not Selling Angel Reyna, Chivas Must 'Pay What He's Worth' First?

Nothing is easy to come by for Chivas Guadalajara, even when Fox Deportes (via reporter Ruben Rodriguez) says it will be.

Chivas Guadalajara Targeting Gerardo 'Jerry' Flores?

Veracruz midfielder Angel Reyna was reportedly ready to transfer to Guadalajara no later than Friday. It should be of note, however, that the 29-year-old did have Cruz Azul as an option. On Thursday, Veracruz Sporting Director Fidel Kuri added a new twist to the transfer saga. Reyna won't be walking to Guadalajara. If the Mexican giants want his services, they're going to have to break the bank (h/t to Medio Tiempo). "If there's a good offer that will allow me to bolster my team, then there wouldn't be a problem as long as they pay me what he's worth," Kuri said.

"For me, Reyna is the best player in Mexico, even if he's never been to a World Cup. When I bought him, they [Monterrey] told me he was worth one dollar and I told them that I would pay 50 cents, but they told me he was worth a dollar and that's what I ultimately ended up paying for him," he added.

Should Chivas Guadalajara Target Naturalized Mexican Lucas Lobos? 

Veracruz entered the season in danger of being relegated to Mexico's second division. Fortunately for Kuri, Reyna arrived to salvage his season.

"He saved my team. He had nine goals. I know what kind of player Reyna is. Apart from being a great man, he is a friend and I consider him to be a son."

With such an emotional tie to a player, Chivas Guadalajara's efforts to complete his transfer will be tougher than expected. Will they be able to ultimately complete it? Tell us @SportsWN
