Jordy Caicedo, a former Tigres player, is the new reinforcement for Atlas. Another who could arrive would be Rodrigo Aguirre, who was sounded out and plays for Rayados de Monterrey.

Atlas will make its debut in the Leagues Cup against New York FC on Sunday at 17:00 hours in Mexico and 19:00 hours ET in the USA.

This match will also help Diego Cocca's team to gain confidence ahead of the Leagues Cup and after two games in the league without a win.

Atlas' stars of the bicampeonato are slowly starting to leave. Julio Quiñones has already left and now it is the turn of Julio Furch, who is leaving for Santos of Brazil.

The Rojinegros del Atlas receive Sporting de Gijón in what will be a heartfelt farewell for one of the stars such as Julio Furch. We begin with VAVEL's coverage of the game.

If there is one player who knows how Mexican soccer is played and who knows what he has to do to cause damage to defenses, it is Juan Otero, who had an outstanding performance on Sunday and will be looking to emulate the same on Wednesday at the Jalisco Stadium.

Due to the offensive losses in the last two weeks with the departure of key players such as Julián Quiñones and Julio Furch, the Uruguayan Brian Lozano will have to assume the leadership role in the team, and will have to be the leader both on and off the field.

1 Yáñez, 2 Guille Rosas, 5 Pablo García, 6 Nacho Martín, 10 Nacho Méndez, 16 Diego Sánchez, 19 Juan Otero, 21 Fran Villalba, 23 Djuka, 24 Izquierdoz, 28 Leo Miguel.

12 Camilo Vargas, 5 Anderson Santamaría, 2 Hugo Nervo, 14 Luis Reyes, 4 José Abella, 26 Aldo Rocha, 6 Edgar Zaldivar, 17 Jaziel Martínez, 8 Mateo García, 10 Brian Lozano, 30 Eduardo Aguirre.

Sporting Gijón already gave a blow of authority by beating Santos Laguna last Sunday at the TSM Corona, and now they will try to spoil the party for Atlas to show that the talent in Spain can be a preamble to be promoted for the following season.

After the first three dates in Liga MX with a win, a draw and a loss, and prior to the start of the Leagues Cup, Atlas seeks to regain confidence in the friendly match against one of its distant brothers, Sporting de Gijón, when they meet at the Jalisco Stadium, which will also mean the farewell of Julio Furch and, in his place, the signing of Jordy Caicedo has already been announced.

The Atlas vs Sporting Gijon match will be played at the Jalisco, in Guadalajara, Mexico. The kick-off is scheduled at 10:00 pm ET.
