December 16 – Juan Carlos Rodríguez, the president of Liga MX and the Mexican Football Federation (FMF), resigned on Friday during a meeting of Liga MX club owners who disagreed with his proposed investment strategy for the league.
Team owners rejected a proposed $1.25 billion investment from Apollo Global Management that would have seen the league’s clubs pool broadcast and certain commercial rights. Mexican clubs sell their own broadcast and commercial rights independently.
