Allan Saint-Maximin is the top winger in the current Apertura 2025 | OneFootball

Allan Saint-Maximin was undoubtedly the most striking signing in this Apertura 2025.

The player, only 28 years old, decided to reject several offers from Europe to join Club América; the player himself confessed that he was pleased with the interest the team showed in him and the ease they provided for him to come to Mexico. He even highlighted that the financial aspect didn't influence his decision since he could earn a lot of money in Arabia.

With the Eagles, he has so far played 608 minutes, splitting his time as a starter and substitute, with a record of three goals and two assists, which are very positive numbers considering it's his first tournament and he didn't even have a preseason with the team.

But that's not all, the statistics-specialized media ‘Statiskicks‘, revealed a graph where we could see the players who win the most dribbles and offensive duels, with Allan Saint-Maximin being the best by far in that aspect. Besides this data, the French-origin player also has the most passes into the area and is second in key passes in the entire Liga MX.

This tells us a lot about how his first tournament has been; a player who likes to face the opponent and usually wins his one-on-ones, and also takes the liberty of providing assists for his teammates, although unfortunately, most are not taken advantage of.

Hopefully, for the next tournament, the management will hire a center forward who can capitalize on all those plays generated by Allan Saint-Maximin and Brian Rodríguez.
