Overview

  • Marc Spiegel becomes the tenth owner in the club’s 35-year history after the Liga MX Assembly and FMF ratified Innovatio Capital’s purchase.
  • Innovatio Capital’s $120 million investment ranks among the largest in Liga MX and marks the first full takeover of a Mexican club by an American-led group.
  • The deal separates Gallos Blancos from Grupo Caliente’s holdings and aligns with recent league reforms targeting multiproperty practices.
  • Spiegel introduced four guiding principles—honesty, integrity, hard work and commitment to excellence—to shape the club’s institutional and sporting direction.
  • Querétaro’s expanding urban market and Liga MX’s sizable fan base in Mexico and the United States drove Spiegel’s decision to invest.
