Despite Cruzeiro’s interest, the former Blackburn forward has confirmed he isn’t planning on a move in the January transfer window, insisting he’s happy to fulfil his commitment with Betis.
”I have made a committed with Betis. I have a challenge here and everything else is irrelevant,” Santa Cruz said.
