Henry Martín joins the race for the Apertura 2026 golden boot | OneFootball

After becoming a historic player for América, winning six trophies and being a key figure in each of them, Henry Martín had a completely forgettable 2025, full of injuries and poor performances.

It was expected that in 2026, the ‘Bomba’ would be able to regain his form, but even though he overcame his injuries, from a footballing standpoint he was still far from the Henry we saw during the Liga MX three-peat.

But it seems that little by little he is starting to recover his best version, and in this Apertura 2026 the América striker has regained his scoring touch and has already positioned himself as one of the forwards with the most goals so far in the tournament.

Henry has scored six goals, putting him just four behind Salomón Rondón, who is the current scoring leader, while also being América’s top scorer so far this semester.

While it is true that these are not spectacular numbers, we are talking about a Henry who seemed to no longer have the level to stay at América and who, although it has taken time, appears to be on the right track in his footballing recovery.

Another important detail in this situation is that, for the first time in several seasons, he is sharing the attack with a player who is also scoring goals, namely Miguel Borja, who has four goals in just 113 minutes played in the Apertura 2026.

After what was seen against Necaxa, it is clear that both can play together and that as the matches go by, they could understand each other even better.
