Toluca Confirms Alexis Vega Ankle Arthroscopy, Sidelining Captain Early in Clausura

The forward will undergo a minimally invasive procedure to remove internal ankle material that has limited his mobility.

Overview

  • The club issued an official medical report stating Vega will have an arthroscopic joint cleaning and will be unavailable for upcoming matches.
  • Outlets report an estimated recovery window of four to six weeks, contingent on his progress.
  • Vega was already left out of Toluca's matchday squad for Jornada 1 against Monterrey.
  • Based on the reported timeline, he is expected to miss several early Liga MX fixtures, including Santos, Tigres and Cruz Azul.
  • His absence would also rule him out of Mexico's non-FIFA friendlies against Panama and Bolivia, limiting options for coach Javier Aguirre.
