Rodolfo Cota spoke about his future, is he leaving América? | OneFootball

Rodolfo Cota arrived at América in mid-2025 with a secondary role, which was to be Luis Ángel Malagón’s backup and bring all of his experience to the team.

The 38-year-old goalkeeper accepted that role and throughout his time there only played a few matches, most of them friendlies.

But an unfortunate injury to Luis Ángel Malagón opened the door for him to become América’s starting goalkeeper, and he has responded in a great way, keeping a prospect like Fernando Tapia on the bench, who had just returned for this tournament.

Will he stay at Club América?

Cota himself answered this question, assuring that it was up to the club’s management, although he admitted that his plan had been to return to León at the end of this season, but that his idea changed after getting the chance to be a starter with Las Águilas.

It should be noted that Cota only arrived on a one-year loan and that loan ends right at the close of this tournament, but André Jardine himself said that he has already asked the club’s management to keep him for the next tournament.

We’ll have to wait and see what happens. The most likely scenario is that they will try to negotiate a transfer with León, which should be for a very low amount, and with that, Rodolfo Cota would be the starting goalkeeper for the Apertura 2026.
