Move is intended to give LAFC salary cap room and flexibility to work on its roster.
Los Angeles Football Club’s leading scorer the past two seasons, Colombian forward Cristian Arango, has been transferred from the defending Major League Soccer champions to their Liga MX counterparts.
The transfer fee from Pachuca for the 27-year-old attacker approaches $6 million and includes a sell-on clause, a source said, placing the deal near the level of Brian Rodriguez to Club America last summer and Diego Rossi to Fenerbahçe in Turkey in 2021. “Chicho” quickly became a spark that lifted LAFC. Tenacious and positive, he stood out as a bright spot following his summer arrival, scoring 14 goals in 17 games to earn MLS newcomer of the year honors. He played in each of LAFC’s 34 regular season contests in 2022 and was a major contributor as the Black & Gold claimed its second Supporters’ Shield and first MLS Cup.
