Salomón Rondón is set to rejoin Liga MX’s Pachuca after a stint with Real Oviedo in Spain’s LaLiga. The news is a major statement from the Hidalgo-based club, which strengthens its attack with an experienced forward who promises to bring quality and leadership in the push for a championship run.

Journalist César Luis Merlo reported the transfer, which sees the Venezuelan striker return to Mexico after a short spell in Europe where he wasn’t able to find the consistency he was looking for. During his time at Oviedo, he featured in several matches but never quite secured a permanent spot in the starting XI.

After weighing his future and evaluating opportunities in both Europe and the Americas, the Venezuelan decided to head back to Liga MX and rejoin Los Tuzos, where he had previously delivered impressive performances.

A significant boost to Pachuca roster

Throughout his career, Rondón has been one of Venezuela’s most prominent footballers, with a distinguished international résumé that includes stops in the Premier League, LaLiga, and Serie A. His return to Pachuca presents a prime opportunity to showcase his full talent and contribute at a critical moment for the club, which is actively seeking high-level reinforcements to elevate its performance in domestic competition.

Additionally, the arrival of the Venezuelan striker comes at a key time for Los Tuzos, who face the challenge of strengthening their front line ahead of upcoming tournaments. With Rondón back in the squad, the team aims to be more competitive and position itself as a legitimate contender for the top spots in the league.

News of his return has created significant buzz among Pachuca supporters, who hope the forward becomes a decisive piece in the attack. Rondón is known for his powerful finishing, relentless work rate, and extensive experience in top-flight competitions - attributes that will undoubtedly enhance the team’s offensive firepower.
