Either because they are afraid they are not getting a fair shake or because they fear starting at the bottom and earning each minute. Also, the 24-25 yr. old and up players are usually married and have a couple of kids so moving overseas is a big pain. Can't blame them for that. Pretty ironic given the fact thousands of people risk their lives everyday crossing a border. All great points, but one other point to add:

Mexican clubs set ridiculously high transfer fees for European clubs, but scale it down for other domestic teams. Europe is leery because of stikcer shock, not because of lack of talent.

This is a strange club. Legendary accomplishments. Always plays 2nd fiddle in Madrid, and is not even top 5 in terms of popularity in Spain. They chew coaches up and spit them out. Bianchi. Aguirre can get it done but it won't be easy. Atletico have decent resources and a better youth system than most clubs. Kikin and Salcido are looking for European clubs? Good luck to “el vasco”.
