Beausejour: "I will not continue on O´Higgins, I might be joining América"

SANTIAGO.- 2008 has been the best soccer year so far for Jean Beausejour.  The outside winger for O´Higgins has become a crucial player for his club and has even gained himself a jersey for the national team.

He is a favorite of Bielsa and one of the best players in the current tournament which is coming to an end.

The former UC player’s performance has attracted the attention of several foreign teams, meaning that his days in Chile may be numbered.

The most likely option is that Beausejour will make is way to club América de México – a team that has been after him for some time.  “I am definitely not going to stay on O´Higgins.  And well, the most likely scenario is that I will join América because I believe an oral agreement has already been made”, the player stated on the Liv TV program “Bonvallet 2.0”.

With regards to his team’s elimination from the playoffs, Beausejour stated, “sometimes we were very clear about what we needed to do and sometimes we weren’t…Palestino, on the other hand always knew what they were doing, independent of whether or not everyone agrees with how they played.  This is what mattered in the end”.
