América is said to have reached out to the camp of Obed Vargas, midfielder for the Seattle Sounders, to strengthen their squad ahead of the Clausura 2026. 

Vargas, considered the most valuable U-21 player in MLS, is also on the radar of European clubs such as Sporting Lisbon and teams from the Bundesliga. His outstanding performance at the U-20 World Cup with the Mexican National Team has increased interest in him.

Although the European dream is still alive, the Mexican player does not rule out leaving MLS to seek a more competitive environment. His main motivation is to gain prominence in order to secure a spot at the 2026 World Cup.

It is reported that the Seattle Sounders could ask for around 8 to 9 million dollars for his transfer.
