Club América Weighs Early Recall of ‘Chicote’ Calderón From Necaxa for Clausura 2026

Reports point to a loan-clause review driven by looming World Cup call-ups.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report América is evaluating bringing Cristian Calderón back just six months into his Necaxa loan to reinforce the squad for the upcoming tournament.
  • There is no formal offer or confirmed contact between the clubs, with the possibility described as under internal discussion at Coapa.
  • Calderón is on a one-year loan with an option to buy, and media say América is examining mechanisms such as a repesca or loan interruption to enable an early return.
  • André Jardine values Calderón’s versatility and prior success with América’s 2024 title-winning sides, which would reduce integration time if he is recalled.
  • Coverage cites expected national-team absences before the Liguilla and, per Publimetro, concerns over depth at left side as factors, with reporters suggesting the situation could be clarified in the coming days.
