Could Álvaro Fidalgo return to Club América?

Álvaro Fidalgo signed with Spain’s Real Betis six months ago with the goal of fulfilling his dream of playing in Spain’s first division, and this season he wants to achieve another one: playing in the Champions League.

But unfortunately, his time at Betis has not been what he expected. During his first season, he totaled just over 600 minutes, usually coming off the bench, and he has started this season without a single minute in the two matches played.

This has sparked rumors linking him with another club in Spain or even a return to Liga MX.

Could he return to Club América?

The answer is NO, there is no chance that the “Maguito” will return to América this season. The reason he has not played in this campaign is because he has a minor knee issue, and they have therefore decided not to risk him.

While it is true that his role at Real Betis will be as a substitute, Álvaro’s goal is to earn a spot in the starting XI, and he definitely wants to remain at Real Betis at least for the rest of the year.

And it is not only for sporting reasons. Fidalgo is about to have his first child, and that is also a reason to stay in Spain, where his family lives, so his intention is to remain in his home country.

If he ever returns to Mexico, the player himself has made it clear that he would choose Club América over any other club, so if the chance to come back arises, he will do so with Las Águilas, but for that we will have to wait.
