Brian Rodríguez extends contract with Club América | OneFootball

One of the most talked-about topics during the last transfer window was the possible departure of Brian Rodríguez, a player who had received several offers from different leagues.

His agent, Edgardo Lasalvia, on several occasions criticized the América board for not accepting the offers that came in, emphasizing that clubs like Inter Miami (United States), Santos (Brazil), and Al Rayyan (Qatar) made concrete offers and all were rejected.

In fact, the last offer that arrived was for 10 million dollars from Al Rayyan, but once again the board decided not to accept that amount, despite the fact that—according to the agent’s words—it was the amount Santiago Baños had asked for to let ‘Rayito’ go.

This caused frustration for the agent, who even at several points claimed he would take his player ‘for free,’ since the contract was set to expire in mid-2026, allowing him to negotiate with any club from the beginning of the year.

Brian Rodríguez renewed his contract until 2029.

At last, the ‘soap opera’ is over and it has been confirmed that Brian Rodríguez renewed his contract with Club América until 2029, with an increase in his salary.

While it’s true that Brian was not a key player in the team’s three-peat championship, as he was generally a substitute for players like Julián Quiñones and ‘Cabecita’ Rodríguez, he has earned a starting spot after the departure of the aforementioned players and has become a key player in his position.

To go no further, in this tournament, in 17 matches played, he is the team’s top scorer (7) and the one with the most assists (6).

Undoubtedly, it’s great news that he’s staying at the club, and hopefully soon we’ll see an alliance with Allan Saint-Maximin, since in the match against Puebla, it was clear they weren’t fully in sync yet.
