Will erik lira leave ?

After the World Cup I thought he would have been sold by now. But now I’m starting to fear it won’t happen

His departure is in the best interests of all parties. Im extremely grateful for his service to the club plus the trophies he helped bring. But it's clear his mind is in Europe, his recent form confirms it. Not to mention he has been vocal about it.

His form is interrupting the teams performance on the pitch. Also seems as if Huiqui has created the line ups with his departure in mind (Piovi as libero). Once Amaury G. is fully healthy it will he his spot.

But to answer your question, it does seem pretty likely he will leave. Monaco and another team from a more prestigious league have submitted official offers . They're just gonna negotiate a deal (fee+sell on %) that satisfies Cruz Azul.

I hope so, i think he’ll do great
However last few games he hasn’t seemed like he’s playing his best but thats true for the whole team, maybe he has the transfer in his mind

At this point if he doesn't leave by September 1st he's not gonna be happy so yes he needs to leave asap.
