💥Collateral effect: the main losers if Bautista signs | OneFootball

Club América remains extremely active in the transfer market ahead of the 2026 Apertura Tournament. The club’s board is evaluating the signing of midfielder Alan Bautista, who is currently with Pachuca’s Tuzos. While his arrival would strengthen the midfield, it would also cause a major shake-up in the internal competition at the Coapa nest.

Direct pressure in the creative area

The talented attacking midfielder is a player head coach Guillermo Almada knows perfectly from his time with the Hidalgo-based side. However, his arrival in Mexico City would create a complicated scenario for several players who are currently fighting for a starting spot.

Among the main players affected is Érick Sánchez, who also arrived from Pachuca and plays a similar role on the field. Likewise, Brazilian Raphael Veiga would see his minutes and playing space drastically reduced with the arrival of a new competitor with creative traits.

A high-cost operation

Completing the transfer will not be an easy task for the Eagles. Bautista is under contract with the Tuzos until the summer of 2028, which will force América to pay a multimillion-dollar fee if it wants to complete a signing that is already dividing opinion among the fans.
