Ocampos has dealt with multiple injuries throughout his 14-year-long professional career.

Monterrey are reportedly moving closer to a key addition for the Clausura 2026, having reached a preliminary agreement with MLS side FC Cincinnati for the transfer of winger Luca Orellano.

Manchester United have reportedly tabled an offer to sign Sergio Ramos on a free transfer after the Real Madrid legend's departure from Monterrey. The 39-year-old made his final appearance for the Mexican club in their Liga MX play-off semi-final defeat to Toluca on 7 December, and it has been said that he is eying a return to Europe.

Toluca stirred controversy after booking their place in the Apertura 2025 Final and knocking out Monterrey, aiming their celebration directly at Sergio Ramos. The Spaniard had earlier silenced the Nemesio Diez crowd after scoring Rayados’ lone goal in a 3-1 defeat. After the elimination, the Diablos turned his gesture against him - and Ramos didn’t hold back.

Former Real Madrid and Spain centre-back Sergio Ramos has departed Mexican side Monterrey following their final game of the season. Monterrey fell to a 3-2 defeat to Toluca in the semi-finals of the Liga MX playoffs, and Ramos has confirmed that he has played his final game for the club. However, the legendary defender has no plans to call time on his playing career.

Apertura 2025 came to an end for André Jardine’s América, as not even an Alejandro Zendejas goal could save them from a 90th-minute strike by Germán Berterame that sealed a premature Liguilla exit for the azulcremas. It’s the first time Jardine has been eliminated before the semifinals since taking over the Americanista bench.

Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos is reportedly poised to leave Mexican club Monterrey and return to European football, driven by a desire to represent Spain at the 2026 World Cup. The 39-year-old defender has decided against renewing his contract with Rayados, which is nearing its expiry, hoping to bow out with a Liga MX title.
