Guadalajara, Mexico - UCLA Alum Eder Arreola has been very busy in making sure he is 100 percent ready for this week's MLS Combine by training south of the border at Club Tijuana, and after more than a week with the Xolos, Eder admits it would be a tough choice if he received offers from both MLS and Mexican Teams.

Eder who is 20 years old and forwarder for the UCLA Bruins, arrived in Tijuana last tuesday after his agent arranged a temporary agreement, and Arreola was invited back this week.

"Training with Tijuana is all good and also has been a great opportunity and experience for me, and i feel really good" Arreola said.

Despite the success south of the border, the MLS player combine in Ft. Launderdale, Fla, from Jan. 6 - 10, is on Arreola's mind, and he cannot wait, he said.

"I'm not nervous, i'm looking forward to it, being invited to the Combine is a big honor and i did accept the challenge" Arreola explained.

Eder aims to show MLS teams that he is ready for the next stage in his soccer career, after training in the summer with Jaguares, Mexican clubs are very aware of his talent.

If in the enviable postion of having to pick between an MLS club and a Mexican Club, Arreola said he would consult with his family and his agent and make a decision based on what would be best in the long term.
