Mohamed Solidifies Toluca Legacy With Leagues Cup Title

He pledged to remain at Toluca, pursuing a top-four Liga MX finish, another league crown and a place in the Intercontinental competition.

Overview

  • Toluca beat Monterrey 2-0 in the Leagues Cup final on September 7, with Alexis Vega scoring early after a rebound and Helinho sealing the win at the 70th minute.
  • The victory makes Toluca the first Mexican club to win the Leagues Cup since the competition’s format changed in 2023, ending a run of MLS winners.
  • Since arriving in 2025 Mohamed has won six trophies with Toluca and his Leagues Cup triumph took his total to 11 official titles in Mexican football.
  • Mohamed now stands as Toluca’s most decorated manager, surpassing Ignacio Trelles, and he told reporters he will remain with the club rather than leave.
  • The win shifts attention to Toluca’s immediate goals — the Apertura campaign and December’s Intercontinental spot — and it raises expectations among fans and players for more domestic and international success.
