Hirving Lozano is now mentioned everywhere, but in Mexico, people also call him Chucky Lozano. The reason is because he often hid under the bed and jumped up to threaten his teammates like the dolls that killed Chucky in Serie horror films.
This 22-year-old winger is actually one of the rising talents of American football and everyone almost believes that after the 2018 World Cup, he will leave the Netherlands to go to one of the top European championships.
Remember, Lozano has only had one season playing for PSV Eindhoven after he left Pachuca in the summer of 2017. At that time, Man United wanted him. Man City also planned to pursue him, before he moved to Philips on a 6-year contract.
In January, Arsenal and Liverpool had problems with the Mexican midfielder but failed. Partly because PSV Eindhoven need him for the Dutch championship, a tournament in which Lozano has scored 17 goals in 29 matches, partly because Chucky does not want to have a disruption before the 2018 World Cup.
Interestingly, Lozano's goal against Germany was his 7th in 26 games for El Tri. Meanwhile, Chucky has... 7 parts.
However, according to Mexico coach Juan Carlos Osorio, Lozano's personality is completely different from a killing doll. He is not only a good player but also a very modest person.
