Overview
- Reports from The Athletic relayed by Mexican outlets say Cristian ‘Chicho’ Arango is set to renew with San Jose Earthquakes, taking him off Pumas’ list.
- Pumas have turned to Necaxa’s Diber Cambindo as their primary alternative, with indications the selling club would listen despite a high valuation.
- Further options under consideration include free agent Miguel Borja and Rafael Santos Borré, who remains tied to Internacional on a long-term, high-salary deal.
- The club previously saw an Arango move blocked when MLS’s window was closed and an initial Pumas offer was rejected by San Jose.
- Executives plan three to four immediate-impact signings across the squad, with local reports expecting José Juan Macías to be renewed for one more year while a new striker is secured.
