América won the fourteenth star in the BBVA MX League but André Jardine’s team would already be thinking about the next goal: to be the fourth two-time champion in the history of short tournaments. The azulcrema team does not want to wait a long time again to consecrate itself again, so they will seek to make history and maintain their good performance to win the Clausura 2024 title.
“Enjoying every minute, every day, assimilating, but also with my head planning and thinking about the next tournament. The feeling is that we are starting something big that is to come with other achievements, other things and a very positive and happy head,” declared the Brazilian at a press conference after winning the 14th Nido championship.
Maintaining the same essence of the squad from the last tournament and with some reinforcements such as Cristian ‘Chicote’ Calderón, who was already officially announced as their first signing, the Águilas will defend their throne with the hope of joining the list of two-time champions.
In the history of short tournaments, which began in 1996, only three teams have won the title twice in a row: Pumas (Clausura 2004 and Apertura 2004), León (Apertura 2013 and Clausura 2014) and Atlas (Apertura 2021 and Clausura 2022 ).

América closed 2023 as the highest scoring team in Latin America, surpassing Bolívar (Bolivia) and América de Cali (Colombia), so it will be a great motivation to start 2024 with this news.
According to the SofaScore annual report, the Águilas finished the year with 92 goals in 44 games they played (42 scores in the Clausura 2023 and 50 in the Apertura 2023); However, they did not have the best goal per game average, as they finished with 2.1 goals per game while Bolívar surpassed them with 2.62.
