Mazatlan FC's goodbye: The Pearl of the Pacific faces uncertainty. The geography of Mexican football is about to change soon. After a controversial founding in 2020 and six years in the top division, the Mazatlan FC will have its last games this week and then face uncertainty. At the end of 2025, Liga MX announced its authorization for the start of the club's sale process, the youngest franchise in the championship. With the luck cast and the smallest payroll in the league, the Cañoneros began their last tournament, Clausura 2026, with anxiety. "Our future is uncertain", said defender Jair Díaz, 27 years old. "It's a complicated process, but the team has already adapted to it". This Wednesday, when the 16th round is played, Mazatlan will be local for the last time with a luxury visitor: the bicampeón Toluca. The Cañoneros' history will end on Saturday with a tough visit to the Tigres at the Universitario stadium. With 12 points, the season is lost for Mazatlan. The big question is what will happen to its players. In the face of the imminent disappearance of the club, coach Sergio Bueno pointed out that the future of between 60 and 70 players hangs in the balance: "I don't know where they will go". Bueno took charge of the Cañoneros in January, in an emergency, from the fourth round with the objective of closing the club's history decorously. The coach urged the players to deliver their best football to awaken the interest of the clubs to hire them for the next tournament. The Cañoneros were put up for sale by businessman Ricardo Salinas Pliego, who also owns the Puebla club, another historic club. Salinas Pliego, owner of TV Azteca, decided to sell Mazatlan due to the need to end the multipropiedad that persists in Mexican football. "It is expected that the operation will be fully concluded before the summer of 2026", said Mikel Arriola, president of Liga MX. Additionally, the businessman has a media confrontation with the Mexican government due to the collection of over 70 billion pesos in taxes (over 4,000 million dollars).
