Even before stepping onto the field, Hirving Lozano is already a major success for San Diego FC. The acquisition of Lozano has generated significant attention, especially considering the player's age of 28 and his nearly decade-long, trophy-laden tenure in Europe. He will join the 30th MLS club in 2025, bringing a new level of expectation and excitement.

San Diego FC and Lozano will officially take the field in 2025. The club is building a project that attracts talented players. Lozano, who could have continued his career in Europe, was drawn to the club's ambitious plan. "From the moment I first spoke with San Diego and they showed me the project and all the infrastructure, it was a shock to me. It’s a project I’ve experienced before, but this one is 10 times better," said Lozano.

The arrival of players like Lozano, with extensive international experience, shows how the MLS is becoming an attractive destination for global talents. This not only raises the competitive level but also increases the league's visibility on the world stage. The commitment of clubs to doing something different is helping to strengthen the league and attract new audiences and fans.

San Diego FC's ambition goes beyond the pitch. The California club aims to develop talents, particularly through the creation of The Right to Dream Academy, a campus dedicated to nurturing new players. "Honestly, the project feels like my life, so I identify with it a lot. I think it’s a great project. I believe we can give many young players the chance to grow and have a better life so close to Mexico. Personally, my goal is always to leave a mark in Mexico," Lozano emphasized.

Known as Chucky, Lozano has been a champion wherever he has played: at Pachuca, Napoli, and PSV Eindhoven, in addition to being a constant presence in the Mexican national team. His winning experience will be a significant contribution to San Diego FC. With his technical skill and speed on the wings, he aims to help the Californians achieve great success in their inaugural year.

I don’t like to talk much, but I have my goals that I know I can achieve. If God wills, I will be a champion with San Diego. That’s an important dream. To leave a big mark here in San Diego with this team. This is a golden opportunity for me," concluded the player.
