Monterrey Star Dreams of Joining América with Montserrat Saldívar

Monterrey, Mexico – In a surprising turn of events, Mexican football player Katty Martínez recently made headlines when she departed from Club América Femenil to join rivals Rayadas. Martínez, once a prominent figure for the blue-and-yellow team, left a significant gap in the squad, especially following Rayadas’ recent victory over América in the championship.
The transfer was met with shock and disappointment from América’s fans, as Martínez joined one of their closest competitors, intensifying the rivalry within Liga MX Femenil.
Now, attention is turning to another player within the Rayadas camp. Alice Soto, a standout midfielder and member of the Mexican national team, has publicly expressed her desire to team up with América goalkeeper Montserrat Saldívar. In a recent interview with Canela TV, Soto articulated her enthusiasm for possibly joining Saldívar at América, highlighting their strong on-field chemistry.
“I know Montse well, and we complement each other very nicely on the pitch,” Soto said. Her comments have led fans to speculate about a potential transfer, although she did not suggest that Saldívar leave her current team. Instead, her remarks seemed to reflect a desire to play alongside her fellow athlete.
During a rapid-fire Q&A segment in the interview, Soto was asked which team she played for and unexpectedly referred to América, further fueling rumors about her intentions. This is not the first time Soto has hinted at wanting to join América; her previous playful comments raise questions about her loyalty to Rayadas.
As the Liga MX Femenil season unfolds, Soto’s aspirations have added an intriguing layer to the ongoing narrative of player movements and team rivalries. With both players poised for future successes, fans are eagerly watching to see if Soto’s dream of playing with Saldívar becomes a reality.
