Liga MX transfers: confirmed signings, departures and rumors ahead of the Apertura 2023

With the on-field action getting underway on Friday, we take a look at how all 18 Liga MX are shaping up before kick-off.

Ciudad de México
RODRIGO ARANGUAAFP

The start of Liga MX’s Apertura 2023 is just around the corner, with many clubs across Mexico still keen to strengthen their rosters for the tournament. Some of the league’s biggest names, including Club América and Clausura 2023 runners-up Chivas, have yet to make what you might call a ‘statement signing’ and have many relatively few changes in the off-season. Perhaps that could be about to change with Hirving Lozano and/or Erick Gutiérrez...

Other big hitters, such as Cruz Azul and Pumas, have been more active but although it appears as if they have made quality signings on paper, few are tried and tested in Liga MX.

Tigres and Monterrey, who will again be expected to challenge for the title, have also been quiet, although the transfer window will remain open until early September.

In any case, let’s take a look at which players will be wearing which jerseys come the start of this season this coming weekend, and which won’t.
