Toluca continues to strengthen its squad with the recent signing of Víctor "Pocho" Guzmán, who arrives to cover the loss of Marcel Ruiz. Ruiz's injury, which will keep him sidelined for much of the upcoming season, prompted Toluca's management to seek a player with experience and offensive capability. The 31-year-old Guzmán joins the scarlet club for the next two seasons, bringing leadership and goals to the team. The midfielder, who became a free agent after his time with Chivas, is seen as a key piece for the current Liga MX champion, who aims to defend its title. Throughout his career, Guzmán has proven his quality in Liga MX, having won multiple titles with Pachuca and Chivas. In his last season, although not a regular starter, he posted interesting numbers that caught the attention of Toluca's coaching staff. Guzmán's arrival is viewed as an opportunity for the player to regain prominence and help his new team cope with the absence of Marcel Ruiz.
