In late July 2026, Club América announced that Uruguayan winger Brian Rodríguez suffered a left‑knee sprain in training, projecting a two‑to‑eight‑week recovery and ruling him out of the upcoming Jornada 3 match and the start of the Apertura 2026 campaign. The injury came amid speculation about potential moves to clubs such as Inter Miami, Cruzeiro and CSKA Moscow.

By early August, the transfer narrative shifted when Cruzeiro declared that negotiations for Rodríguez had stalled due to a lack of response from América. Rodríguez confirmed he would remain with the Mexican side, expressing happiness at the club and indicating he would decide on any future move in his own time. He highlighted the importance of the Leagues Cup, while América, with his contract running until June 2029, began targeting Colombian midfielder Jáminton Campaz as a new offensive option.
