In early August 2026, reports suggested LA Galaxy were close to finalising a permanent transfer for Mexican winger Hirving Lozano, before the narrative shifted to a one‑year loan with an option to purchase, intended to revive his form ahead of the 2026 World Cup. On 7 August, the loan was confirmed: Lozano joined the Galaxy on loan from San Diego FC until December 2026, with a purchase option. The deal registers him as a Designated Player, freeing a DP slot previously occupied by the injured Riqui Puig. During the 2025 MLS season with San Diego, Lozano made 34 appearances, scoring 11 goals and providing nine assists, helping the club reach the Western Conference final. The Galaxy, sitting 12th in the Western Conference, view the acquisition as a boost for their playoff push. General manager Will Kuntz noted a three‑year pursuit, and head coach Greg Vanney expects Lozano to strengthen the right flank and add offensive firepower for the season’s final stretch.
