Club América player updates and Liga MX preparations

Overview

Club América midfielder Alejandro Zendejas was recently featured in a global Adidas advertising campaign alongside stars such as Lionel Messi, Jude Bellingham, and Luis Díaz. While Zendejas was initially ruled out of the Liga MX Apertura 2026 match against Bravos de Juárez due to ongoing rehabilitation for a knee injury sustained in Spain, he has since announced his readiness to return to action.

Following an eight-week absence caused by an articular cleaning procedure on his right knee, Zendejas expressed optimism about securing playing minutes in an upcoming match against Cruz Azul. He noted that while his recovery was initially slow, he currently feels in good condition. However, he is still adapting to the tactical requirements of coach Guillermo Almada, as he was unable to participate in pre-season training in Spain.

In other club developments, midfielder Alan Cervantes has expressed ambitions to become a key player, compete for the championship, and earn a call-up to the Mexican National Team for the Gold Cup. Meanwhile, ahead of the matchup with América, Bravos de Juárez goalkeeper Sebastián Jurado described the game as a challenge comparable to the biblical story of ‘David and Goliath,’ emphasizing his team’s intent to approach the match with hard work and humility.
