Overview
- Robert Dante Siboldi labeled reports linking Ochoa to Mazatlán FC as “rumors” and insisted the club is content with its current goalkeeper roster.
- The 40-year-old shot-stopper left AVS Futebol SAD after May 17 and remains without a club ahead of the 2025–26 season.
- Ochoa has offered himself to teams in Portugal, Spain, France and Belgium and has expressed a clear preference to continue his career in Europe.
- Mexico coach Javier Aguirre has indicated he will only select Ochoa for the 2026 World Cup if he maintains regular starts at club level.
- Mazatlán’s existing options—including Ricardo Gutiérrez, Víctor Alcaraz, Ricardo Rodríguez and prospect Ángel Leyva—diminish the need for an external veteran signing.
