Eduardo Herrera has left Sevco to join Santos Laguna on loan.
The misfiring striker has returned to Mexico a year after joining Pedro Caixinha’s revolution.

Herrera scored just two goals and barely featured after Caixinha was sacked still has two seasons to run on his Ibrox contract with no details released about how long the loan is for.
The departure of the 29-year-old leaves Steven Gerrard with just Alfredo Morelos and Umar Sadiq as strikers with the Nigerian’s loan deal from Roma still to receive international clearance.
Since taking charge at Ibrox at the start of the season Gerrard has been linked with a number of strikers with little success.
Speculation that Jermane Defoe and Fernando Torres would be teaming up again with Gerrard quickly died down with the prospects of getting Danny Ings or Dominic Solanke on loan from Liverpool appear slim.
Santos Laguna, who play in green and white hoops, have a link up with Celtic covering coaching programmes and commercial deals.
