Some notes here, even though promotion and relegation is on hold for five years, I don't see it coming back. The current second tier, Ascenso MX, only has 12 teams, down from 24 ten years ago. Plus, there is a rule that the one team relegated from Liga MX can pay the promoted team from Ascenso MX 120 million pesos to stay in Liga MX, if that Ascenso MX team doesn't meet certain financial requirements set by Liga MX. Not one team in the Ascenso MX league met those standards this season. But between teams folding or being kicked out of the league, there has been movement between the two leagues recently.
The talk now is that this is leading up to a merger of Liga MX and MLS. Personally, don't know how that would work given the financial differences plus you would be looking at a 50 team league. (Maybe a two-tiered league)

Liga MX president Enrique Bonilla has confirmed that promotion and relegation from and to the league has been suspended for five years, following a vote conducted during a video meeting of the 18 Liga MX club owners on Friday. Ascenso MX clubs voted in favor of the decision earlier this week, with Bonilla confirming that each of the 12 teams will receive 20 million pesos ($845,000) every year. The second division will become a league seeking to promote young Mexican players, although there was no news about how that will work. It has been reported that there will be a limit on players over the age of 23. The current Liga MX minors rule will disappear, said Bonilla. |
