The match is set to be played on Wednesday, July 23, in Austin, Texas, just weeks after the start of the Apertura 2025.</p><p>The initial call-ups were revealed through the Liga MX’s Balón de Oro awards, as the league uses performances from the past two tournaments to determine eligibility. The preliminary roster includes two goalkeepers, four defenders, five midfielders, two forwards, and a pair of standout young players.</p><br><table><thead><tr><th>Position</th><th>Player</th><th>Club</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Goalkeepers</td><td>Luis Malagón</td><td>Club América</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Kevin Mier</td><td>Cruz Azul</td></tr><tr><td>Defenders</td><td>Jesús Gallardo</td><td>Monterrey</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Rodolfo Rotondi</td><td>Cruz Azul</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Joaquim Pereira</td><td>Toluca</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Willer Ditta</td><td>Cruz Azul</td></tr><tr><td>Midfielders</td><td>Erik Lira</td><td>Cruz Azul</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Agustín Palavecino</td><td>Necaxa</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Sergio Canales</td><td>Monterrey</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Gilberto Mora</td><td>Tijuana (rookie)</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Alexis Vega</td><td>Toluca</td></tr><tr><td>Forwards</td><td>Paulinho</td><td>Toluca</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Henry Martín</td><td>Club América</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Hugo Camberos</td><td>Chivas (rookie)</td></tr></tbody></table>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The full Liga MX squad will consist of 30 players, with 14 more to be chosen by the coach who wins Best Manager of the Year at the Ballon d’Or awards. The final two players will be selected by FMF Commissioner Mikel Arriola.</p><p>Sergio Ramos (Monterrey) and James Rodríguez (León) were not included in the initial list, raising questions about their future in Liga MX.
