Club América ‘in talks’ for Seattle Sounders midfielder Obed Vargas | OneFootball

Club América are interested in Seattle Sounders midfielder Obed Vargas after his breakout in MLS. According to ESPN, the club are very keen and discussions have been held with club officials and the player's camp.

The 20-year-old Mexico-American has been a regular starter for Seattle, regarded as one of the league's leading players in his position. He has already featured for Mexico, impressing as he pushes towards involvement at the 2026 World Cup.

Vargas wants to leave MLS and views a move to the Águilas favourably, believing it could help him keep his place in the national set-up ahead of a tournament scheduled for mid next year.

The hierarchy are seeking a midfielder and, if all goes well, that could be Vargas.

A defensive-minded holding player who can progress the ball and start attacks, he is seen as a potential complement to Álvaro Fidalgo, either as a partner or by taking on more defensive duties.
