He then joined bitter rivals CSD Municipal in 2007, but he was never accepted by the Rojos 'fans so he decided not to return after only one season.[2] A move to Europe with Inter Milan or Manchester United, or American Major League Soccer had been mentioned for some time, but he joined Mexican side Albinegros in 2008, only to return to the Cremas in June 2008.[3]
