European players have woken up with Liga MX and Mexican football. The domestic competition is finally an attractive proposition for European talent as more and more Mexican clubs sign European players.
In a year Liga MX went from 11 Europeans to 23 for this 2025 Apertura. Is the co-hosting of the World Cup 2026 a possible factor? Aaron Ramsey became the latest controversial player to make the move, while the Welshman closed a year for the World Cup at Pumas, while he seems to be contrary to the Wales team during the largest event in Global Football next summer.
Enforcement names such as Sergio Ramos and James Rodríguez are at the forefront of Spain who contribute to the largest number of players that their trade is currently running in Liga MX.
Spain's dozen
Twelve Spaniards play in the Mexican top flight with Sergio Ramos, Sergio Canales, Oliver Torres and Ávaro Fidalgo as the most important stars.
Fidalgo is the most valuable Spaniard in Mexico. According to Transfermarkt, the América player is currently worth nine million euros. Canales follows with six million euros, while Sergio Ramos is appreciated at 1.2 million euros.
Portugal and France Profile
After Spain, Portugal is the country with the second most players in Mexico. Three Portuguese players play for Liga MX clubs. Paulinho is the most recognized for his performances at Toluca, while William Carvalho recently arrived in Pachuca.
French players take the form of Gignac and Sébastien Salles-Lamonge.
