Diego Valdés Benched? Jardine Eyes New No. 10 for Club América in 2025

Diego Valdés Faces Uncertain Future at Club América

In a dramatic turn of events, André Jardine has reportedly decided to sideline Diego Valdés, making his future with Club América highly uncertain. According to journalist Rubén Rodríguez, Valdés has been informed that he will not be considered for the Torneo Clausura 2025 or the CONCACAF Champions Cup.

This news follows Valdés’ rejection of a transfer offer from Toluca, a move that may have sealed his fate with the Águilas. During an episode of La Última Palabra on FOX Sports, Rodríguez revealed:

«Today, I tell you, he will not get a single minute. He is not in their plans, and they have made it clear to him.»

With Jardine at the helm, it appears that Club América is looking to the future, possibly phasing out Valdés before the Apertura 2025.

Who Will Be Club América’s New No. 10?

During an interview on Futbol Picante (ESPN), Jardine hinted at who might take over the No. 10 role at Club América. His choice? A young talent from the club’s Sub-23 squad.

«I consider ‘Isco,’ a young player with great talent. He will definitely be in the first team, and he can play as a winger or a No. 10.» – André Jardine.

The player in question, Miguel Ramírez, has been a standout performer in the Sub-23 team and is steadily earning a place in the senior squad. His ability to play multiple attacking roles makes him a strong candidate for the prestigious No. 10 jersey.

Club América’s Ambitions for 2025

Club América is not just focusing on a roster revamp—they are also eyeing historic achievements:

• Winning their fourth consecutive Liga MX title (Tetracampeonato).
• Securing the CONCACAF Champions Cup to qualify for the next Club World Cup.

With a new playmaker in the making and a determined squad, the Águilas are gearing up for a massive season ahead.

Will Diego Valdés Leave Club América?

As things stand, Valdés’ future seems uncertain. Unless there is a managerial change or a sudden reconciliation, this semester could be his last in a Club América jersey.

Key Questions:

• Will Valdés fight for his place or seek a new club?
• Is Miguel Ramírez ready to take over the iconic No. 10 role?
• Will Club América’s bold decisions pay off in the pursuit of titles?

The coming months will be crucial for Valdés, Ramírez, and the future of Club América.
