Coach André Jardine confirmed Dutch winger Javairo Dilrosun was left off the Leagues Cup roster and will have his future evaluated after the tournament. América has struggled to transfer Víctor Dávila despite interest from Puebla and other Liga MX sides because his annual salary exceeds $1 million. Negotiators may need to subsidize part of Dávila’s wages in an emergency deal to facilitate an exit before the window closes in September. Non-homegrown player limits have forced América to free up a foreign slot by offloading underperforming, high-earning players. Denis Bouanga of LAFC is the leading candidate for América’s offensive reinforcement, though his transfer fee and salary demands remain a sticking point.
