What They're Saying
Leon captain Mauro Bottinelli (via Esto): "From what I understand, no one's future is safe with the club. They're going to put all the players on the block and if you're available, other teams will be able to take you."
Tijuana manager Daniel Guzman (via Esto): "We are aware that we control our own destiny. I've prioritized the mental aspect of the game over the physical because I know they're in good shape coming into the game."
