The national champion does not waste time. A few days after having finished its participation in the Clausura 2025 tournament, the Xelajú MC Club has turned on the signing market by announcing the departure of ten players from its squad. The Altense team prepares to face a new season full of challenges, including its participation in the Central American Cup.
