Víctor Velázquez Aims to Leave an Unprecedented Legacy at Cruz Azul

Cruz Azul claimed their tenth Liga MX title by defeating Pumas UNAM 2-1 in the Clausura 2026 Final, cementing their status as the most decorated club in Mexican football history. This achievement marks the second league championship under the administration of Engineer Víctor Velázquez and the fifth trophy overall during his tenure.

Velázquez envisions a legacy that extends far beyond two league titles, setting medium and long-term goals that surpass previous benchmarks. He aims to accomplish something that even the legendary Guillermo Álvarez Macías could not achieve during his time at the club.

This historic tenth championship is viewed as just one step in Velázquez's ambitious long-term plan for both La Cooperativa La Cruz Azul and the football team.
