According to Récord, Javier Aquino's transfer to Bravos FC for the Clausura 2026 is imminent. Aquino has arrived in Ciudad Juárez, where he was seen at the airport. He was welcomed by people from the club and posed with a scarf and a cap in the colours of his new club. The player is awaiting the official announcement and medical tests.

Guido Pizarro stated that the departure of Javier Aquino from Tigres is a sensitive topic that is worth clarifying, adding that he respects 'Javi' a lot, empathizes with his feelings, and understands him. Pizarro also mentioned that he was very clear with him when he came to speak with him, telling him that the priority was not him but the reinforcement they are working to bring. The 35-year-old Mexican right-back, who has 54 caps for his country, became a free agent on January 1, 2026. His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €400k.
