Cruz Azul’s new signing, Jeremy Márquez, was all smiles as he spoke to the media during his official unveiling at the club’s facilities. The 24-year-old midfielder, formerly with Atlas, emphasized that the opportunity to compete for trophies was a major factor in his decision to join La Máquina.
“This is a club that’s always competing at the top, a team that fights for championships, even on the international stage, I came to fight for titles” he said. “Honestly, it’s a club that pulls you in. I had been thinking about Cruz Azul for a while – I always liked the team and had it on my radar.”

Márquez, who has 12 career goals since debuting in Liga MX, added that his move to Cruz Azul comes at a pivotal time, with the 2026 World Cup getting closer.
“Being at a club like Cruz Azul puts you in the spotlight. If the team is doing well, the exposure increases – and that can help with national team opportunities,” the Mexico youth international said.
In the 2024–25 season, Márquez played 33 games and scored five goals for Atlas. Now with a fresh start in Mexico City, he’ll look to become a key piece under Nicolás Larcamón.
The 25-year-old midfielder reflected on what led him to join La Máquina emphasizing both the club’s history and its current project.
“Cruz Azul has always stood out for its good football,” Márquez said at his introductory press conference. “The style of play, the quality of players, the energy around the team – all of that caught my attention. When the offer came and I saw the direction the club is heading under Larcamón, I didn’t hesitate.”
He added that Cruz Azul had been on his radar for a while
“It’s a big institution. I had thought about coming here before – it’s always been one of those clubs that attracts you,” he said.
