André Jardine Eyes South America or Europe as Club América Plot Surprise for Fans

Club América have endured a brutal first half of the season, with criticism mounting after quarter-final exits in both the Concacaf Champions Cup and Liga MX. As Mexico's most decorated club, every result is magnified, and the pressure is now squarely on president Santiago Baños.

The frustration among supporters intensified after Chivas swooped to sign Kevin Casta from Xolos de Tijuana, a player recently linked with the Coapa outfit. Social media backlash has been fierce.

While the official Apertura 2026 calendar has yet to be confirmed, the tournament is set to kick off the weekend of July 17-19, overlapping with the World Cup's final stages. André Jardine has hinted that América could look to South America or Europe for reinforcements, with a surprise in the works for the blue-and-yellow faithful.
