End of the discussion: Tano Ortiz is set to transfer ownership to Óscar Jiménez once Ochoa departs.
Guillermo Ochoa did not renew his contract with America and moved to Italy to play with Salernitana, beginning his second continental chapter.
At 37, Memo left a large void in the Águilas’ goal. The club now has two quality custodians aiming to claim the starting spot before the upcoming Closure 2023 tournament. Óscar Jiménez and Luis Malagón will compete to guard the goal for the most decorated team in Mexico.
That’s the context inside TARGET as we dissect who could wear the gloves for the Azulcrema arc.
ÓSCAR JIMÉNEZ, THE FIRST OPTION

Just days before America’s season opener CL23 against Querétaro, the coach solidified Óscar Jiménez as the starter, dispelling earlier speculation about a bench role with a new signing in Coapa.
“I have decided that Óscar will be the goalkeeper. The reason is clear: I trust him, and the main goal is to give him confidence and consistency.”
LUIS MALAGÓN, PLAN B
Since arriving at America in recent weeks, Luis Malagón will await his chance. The former Necaxa goalkeeper has stood out as a top prospect in recent campaigns, a factor that helped secure his signing after the conclusion of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
