César “Chino” Huerta Airport Sightings Spark Transfer Speculation in Monterrey

Images of César “Chino” Huerta at Monterrey International Airport quickly went viral, igniting transfer speculation across Liga MX at a time when both Monterrey and Tigres are actively exploring reinforcements ahead of the Clausura 2026 season, set to kick off on January 9. The timing fueled rumors, especially considering the Mexican winger has been sidelined since late November due to complications from a pelvic injury.

Belgian club Anderlecht previously confirmed that Huerta would be out of action for at least two months, making his unexpected appearance in Monterrey particularly eye-catching. As photos circulated online, fans began linking his presence to a potential move to one of the region’s powerhouse clubs. However, those reports do not reflect the reality of the situation.

Sources close to the player clarified that Huerta’s trip to Monterrey is strictly personal and unrelated to any transfer negotiations. After addressing those matters, the 24-year-old is expected to travel to the United States to continue his rehabilitation following recent surgery. His focus remains firmly on recovery rather than a change of clubs.

Before undergoing the procedure, Huerta’s last competitive appearance came in late October during the Belgian Cup, where he found the net in Anderlecht’s victory over Ninove in the round of 16. That performance underscored his attacking value and explains why any sighting of the player immediately triggers market rumors.

For now, speculation around a Monterrey-based transfer has been ruled out. Huerta’s immediate priority is regaining full fitness and returning to competition, while Liga MX clubs turn their attention back to confirmed targets as the Clausura 2026 approaches.
