Toluca have confirmed Alexis Vega has suffered an injury that will keep him out of Mexico’s upcoming November international friendlies.
The versatile attacker suffered a hamstring injury in Toluca’s 2–2 draw against Pachuca, and scans have revealed that Vega will be sidelined for close to a month.
“Alexis Vega presents a grade 2 muscular injury on his left hamstring,” Toluca said in a statement. “According to his evolution, he’ll return to sporting activity in an approximate time of three to four weeks.”
Vega will miss the final two games of the Liga MX Apertura 2025 regular season, where Toluca is currently tied atop the standings with Tigres and Cruz Azul in the tight fight to secure home-field advantage in the upcoming playoffs.
The 27-year-old’s 13 goals and 11 assists in 23 Liga MX appearances a season ago were vital for Toluca to win the Clausura 2025 title. Vega has followed that up with four goals and 11 assists this term and Toluca are one of the favorites to repeat as champions.
His strong club form have made Vega an untouchable with El Tri, highlighted by him starting every game in Mexico’s run to win the 2025 Gold Cup. Now, Javier Aguirre will be without one of his most trusted attackers for Mexico’s last two games of the year.
