Here are some special background on Mexican talent, ready to arrive at the court of Carlo Ancelotti next summer

 

ROME – The first hit of the Napoli summer market is in the safe: it is Hirving Lozano , Mexican talent who with the National team and with the shirt of PSV Eindhoven he has proven to be one of the best prospects of world football. Born in 1995, Lozano is a striker capable of making both the first and the offensive striker. It has the zest of the warrior, he fights and runs throughout the field, which is why he is greatly appreciated by his fans. He is generous and pliable, but he is also capable of authentic strokes as an outsider. Ambidextrous, quick and lethal: an extra weapon for Carlo Ancelotti . But we know this Mexican talent better: why do they call it ‘Chucky’? And is it true that one of his goals at the World Cup in Russia against Germany caused an earthquake in Mexico City? Let’s find out together …

  • THE NICKNAME – ‘Chucky’ is the protagonist of the film ‘The doll assassin’, released in theaters in 1988. The name was given to Lozano by his teammates in the National team, not only for the similarity, but also because often, in the retreats, he likes to frighten people with some jokes, hiding in closets or under the covers and suddenly appearing.
  • ON FIFA – Since the times of the Pachuca, Hirving Lozano is considered one of the fastest players in the world. It is often referred to as a loose cannon and this did not escape the creators of Electronic Arts, the manufacturer of the most famous soccer game in the world: FIFA. Lozano was considered a buggatone, that is one of those players too strong compared to the others, even too far from the real values. Its speed, in fact, has made it one of the most sought after among users: 95/100 in the sprint and 96/100 in acceleration.
  • MEXICAN DEARER PLAYER – In 2017, PSV Eindhoven paid him eight million euros to tear him away from the Pachuca. No player in Mexico had cost so much before that negotiation. Money well spent and best exploited by the Dutch club, given that the capital gain derived from the sale to Napoli is equal to five times the price paid to the Mexican company.
  • THE EARTHQUAKE – L’attaccante messicano si è reso protagonista di un episodio molto particolare durante l’ultimo Mondiale, in Russia. Durante la partita tra Messico e Germania, infatti, la rete di Lozano contro la nazionale tedesca ha provocato in maniera artificiale una lieve scossa a Città del Messico in seguito all’esultanza dei tifosi messicani per il gol del centravanti. Secondo i dati rilevati da ‘Sismo Detector’, l’esultanze avrebbero provocato un sisma di magnitudo IV della scala Mercalli.
  • STATISTICS – The young footballer has already collected over 30 appearances with the Mexican national team, scoring as many as 9 goals, and for two seasons, after the experience at Pachuca, wears the PSV jersey. With the Dutch club, this season, he played 30 games in Eredivisie and found the net 17 times, also offering 11 assists. Despite his young age he managed to score also in the Champions League: there are two markings in 6 appearances in the maximum European competition (4 goals in 8 appearances considering also the qualifying matches).
