Club Deportivo Toluca's recent successful run has earned praise from one of its legends. Former player Salvador Carmona has commended the team's direction and the dedication of owner Valentín Díez, key factors behind the club's six titles in the last eighteen months. This endorsement comes as the Diablos Rojos sit second in Liga MX with 16 points from seven games.
Carmona, in an exclusive interview, was full of praise for the institution. "It's a great team, very well directed," said the former defender. "Besides, it's one of those important clubs where the owners dedicate themselves exactly to football, they contribute a lot to football…". For Carmona, this solid structure from the top is the foundation for the sustained success Toluca is experiencing, currently on a five-game winning streak in the league.
The value of family
Beyond sporting achievements, the former Mexican international focused on the human aspect he built during his career. He fondly recalled the bonds created inside the dressing room. "Well, only good things that I got to live in football, thank God," Carmona remarked. "With great teammates, above all I believe that, when you are on a team, you form a family". This philosophy of unity is something that, in his view, remains alive in Toluca's current squad, a group that has shown enviable cohesion on the pitch.
The team's flawless streak, with five consecutive wins including the latest victory over Puebla, reflects that collective spirit.
