IIt is no secret that Saul Alvarez’s property corresponds to a nine-digit figure, and he is one of the Mexican people and has the financial means to buy a La Liga MX soccer team. A few years ago he was linked as a potential buyer for Chivas Guadalajara. But that was just speculation. The Guadalajara-born boxer is currently linked to another team in Atlas, Jalisco’s capital.
But now it will not be a lonely purchase, but rather with singer Pesopuruma. July 15, 2025 marks the Orlegi administration’s precedent with Atlas. That day, the start of the sales process became official, sparking a wave of rumors about the club’s future and potential buyers. In the past few hours, “people candidates” have appeared. Anyone can make an offer, no matter what consideration, due to the characters associated with the club and the love for the facilities and the purchasing power they have.

Where did Pesopurma come from as a candidate to buy Atlas?
In reality, there are words from the singer who gives hope that this is the dream of Raffielle members at the moment, but that is what they are capable of. In 2024, Pesopurma expressed his interest in working with Atlas in some way, especially thanks to the fact that, in addition to music, one of his biggest passions is football.
“I remember being a kid, so I always went to Atlas Stadium. I remember going to the Atlas song group Barra 51. It was always good. The entry of foreign capital through investment funds is another speculation mentioned, especially since this type of financial institution is interested in fully participating in the Liga MX market.
What other entrepreneurs can get the Atlas franchise?
In fact, there is no official interest in taking over Atlas at the moment. With “Moelis & Company, Ads and Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP,” the company you hire to carry out the process is in charge of trading and transitions, so you have to get into the work. On the local level, the name of Alfonso Urleè, a well-known businessman in Guadalajara and close to the people of Oregi Sports, is another one that has appeared on the scene, understanding his love for the role he already plays on the current board.
“Foy” Urlear is one of the members of Atlas’ Sports Council, who participated in decisions regarding the first team and is now composed of Alejandro Iraragoli, Jose Liestra, Anibal Fajar and Eduardo Herrera. In reality, buyers’ profiles must understand what Atlas means to know the context and possibilities of the club in both sports and social terms, as well as La Liga MX.
