América have only just signed him, Uruguay want him on loan | OneFootball

Thiago Espinosa’s name has been mentioned a lot in this transfer window, whether it’s about leaving or staying at Club América.

When the Clausura 2026 ended, several journalists pointed out that Thiago Espinosa already had everything agreed to join Atlante on a one-year loan, but that situation changed with André Jardine’s departure and Guillermo Almada’s arrival, since the Uruguayan coach wanted to see all the players.

Just a few days ago, Club América announced that it had exercised the two-million-dollar purchase option for the young Uruguayan’s registration, and this increased the rumors that he would be staying at América.

But the reality is that Thiago has not played in this preseason, and everything points to Guillermo Almada not being convinced about keeping him on the team.

Peñarol of Uruguay is negotiating his loan.

Uruguayan journalist Nico Pirri reports that Peñarol is negotiating a loan deal to take Thiago Espinosa for one year.

If this deal goes through, it would be strange, since it wouldn’t make much sense to buy his registration only to send him back to his home country; in that case, it would be better to look for another Liga MX team to sign him and help him adapt to Mexican soccer.

We’ll have to wait and see what happens, but what does seem like a fact is that Thiago Espinosa will end up leaving the team, since the fact that he didn’t get any minutes in preseason tells us everything.
