Julián Quiñones enters the radar of the Premier League
After his great World Cup, Julián Quiñones would maintain contacts with leaders of Aston Villla in English football
Julián Quiñones was one of the best soccer players on the Mexican team in the 2026 World Cup. The Al Qadisiya forward left very good impressions. Aston Villa were interested in his services. The World Cup served to make this interest stronger.
According to the Sky Sport portal, Aston Villa were following in the footsteps of Julián Quiñones before the World Cup. This made the club's recruiters more closely follow the Mexican's characteristics in the World Cup.
"According to our information, the Villans leaders, through their recruiters present on site, took advantage of the competition to closely observe the forward. Convinced by his level of performance, the English club has informed itself of the player's environment to evaluate the viability of a possible operation," the portal details.
Julián Quiñones had been a very outstanding footballer in Arab football, but the level of the tournament continued to be a cause of doubt for the interested clubs. This is why the World Cup was a good thermometer to measure Quiñones' performance. The former América player did not disappoint.
The 29-year-old attacker played 5 matches in the World Cup and managed to score 4 goals and provide 1 assist. Quiñones converted him to the teams of South Africa, Czech Republic, Ecuador and England.
The next step by Julián Quiñones
Julián Quiñones' performance in the 2026 World Cup was a test passed amidst the analysis of recruiters. Players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Ivan Toney were unable to transfer their good moments in the Arab League to their national teams. Quiñones could have done it and interest would have increased.

Julián Quiñones has a current contract with Al Qadisiya until June 2029. According to information from Transfermarkt, the Mexican's market value is around $16 million.
