Diego Lainez

Lainez won the Liga MX Apertura title with Club América in 2018 and the CONCACAF Gold Cup with Mexico in 2019. He also helped Mexico win the CONCACAF Nations League in 2019-20 and the CONCACAF Olympic Qualifying Championship in 2021.

Diego Lainez is a Mexican professional footballer who primarily plays as a winger or attacking midfielder. He began his career at Club América before moving to Real Betis in 2019, and has also had loan spells at Sporting CP and Braga. Lainez has represented Mexico at various youth levels and earned caps for the senior national team.

Lainez is known for his dribbling ability, quick feet, and creativity in tight spaces, often cutting inside from the wing to create chances. His low center of gravity and agility make him difficult to dispossess, though he can be inconsistent in decision-making and final product. He is most effective when given freedom to roam and link up with teammates in the final third.
