PSV and Mexico star Hirving Lozano set to join MLS expansion side San Diego FC as first major signing

Though a deal is not done yet, San Diego hope to get everything over the line before June’s Copa America, where Lozano is expected to feature for Mexico. Conversations are underway with a $12m fee being discussed. PSV re-signed Lozano from Napoli last summer, spending around €15m on the man that they sold to the Italian champions for €45m. ‘Chucky’ Lozano is now expected to leave just one year into his five-year contract at PSV.

The 28-year-old has scored six goals and provided three assists in 21 Eredivisie appearances this season, helping Peter Bosz’s side develop a remarkable nine-point gap at the top of the table. Hirving Lozano would be a huge signing for San Diego as they look to make an instant impact in the MLS. However, the club are still yet to appoint a head coach and talks with the 70-time Mexico international are still in the early stages.
