Richy Ledezma is at a critical juncture in his career as his contract with PSV Eindhoven is set to expire this summer. The 24-year-old American, who has made over 30 appearances this season, has unexpectedly thrived as a right back, a position he’s only taken up this year.
While PSV is keen to extend his contract, Ledezma is open to exploring other opportunities. According to GIVEMESPORT, Liga MX powerhouse Club America is still one of the leading contenders for his signature, having had a bid rejected by the Dutch club back in January.
Initially an attacking midfielder, Ledezma’s shift to fullback has enhanced his value. His versatility has drawn the attention of clubs across North America, with teams from both Major League Soccer and Liga MX keeping a close eye on his situation.
Compounding the interest is Ledezma’s potential for Mexican citizenship. After being left off the U.S. preliminary roster for the Nations League, reports suggest the Mexican Football Federation has reached out in hopes of convincing him to switch allegiances.
