Efraín Juárez set to leave Pumas as contract expires, Keylor Navas leads title charge

Mexican media reports that Efraín Juárez will depart Pumas after the Liga MX final loss to Cruz Azul. Juárez confirmed his contract ends in December and that no renewal talks have taken place with the sporting vice‑president Antonio Sancho.

The dispute with the board leaves his future at the club uncertain. UNAM finished the Clausura 2026 as the highest‑scoring side and the second‑best defense.

Captain Keylor Navas guided the team to finish the regular season as overall leaders. Juárez’s exit will force Pumas to rethink its plans for the upcoming campaign.
