Liga MX, Francisco Iturbide and Mikel Arriola
Friday
Liga MX has named Francisco Iturbide as its new president, replacing Mikel Arriola. Arriola will remain commissioner of the Mexican Football Federation after previously holding both league and federation roles at once in Mexican football.
The move separates the league leadership from the federation again as Liga MX faces major structural issues. Iturbide takes over during debates over foreign investment, centralisation and the ongoing suspension of promotion and relegation nationally.
