Club América has established itself as the best Mexican soccer team currently, standing out in the Clausura 2025 and reaching the quarter-finals of the Concacaf Champions Cup after defeating Chivas. Now, the azulcrema team seeks to strengthen itself with the signing of a world champion with Argentina in Qatar 2022 to remain a leading team next season.
In this regard, although Ángel Di María was mentioned as a possible addition, the top priority of the management led by Santiago Baños is to replace the absence of Richard Sánchez, the hero of the three-time championship, who scored the title-winning goal against Monterrey. Therefore, the name that resonates strongly to reinforce the midfield is Guido Rodríguez, an Argentine player currently playing for West Ham United in the Premier League.
Guido Rodríguez would be an attractive choice for América, as before his European adventure with Betis, he had a successful stint at the Mexican club and was part of the title-winning team in Apertura 2018. However, the operation would not be simple, given that the 30-year-old player has a valid contract with West Ham until the summer of 2027, and his market value rises to 15 million euros.
