USMNT's Alejandro Zendejas Set to Return for Club América's Apertura 2025 Finale
Alejandro Zendejas, winger for both USMNT and Club América, has fully recovered from a muscle injury sustained during the October international window while with the United States national team. This injury kept him out of the last three league matches.
After training at full strength this week, Zendejas is ready to return to action for Saturday’s regular season finale against Toluca. The 27-year-old’s comeback comes as Club América prepares for the upcoming playoffs.
Careful Management Expected
Head coach André Jardine is expected to manage Zendejas’ playing time carefully to avoid any recurrence of his injury. Earlier this season, Zendejas suffered a setback against Cruz Azul and had to leave the match after only 18 minutes.
Other Injury Updates
- Isaías Violante remains sidelined with a muscle injury and is unlikely to return before the playoffs. The 21-year-old has not played since América’s 3–0 victory over Santos on Matchday 12 and continues to train separately.
- Club América captain Henry Martín is also out, having missed games since Matchday 8 against Chivas.
“Alejandro Zendejas has recovered fully and could feature as América fine-tune ahead of the playoffs,” said the team’s medical staff.
Summary: Alejandro Zendejas returns from injury to boost Club América for the Apertura 2025 finale, while other key players remain sidelined as the playoffs approach.
