After the latest Owners’ Assembly which took place this past Friday, it was revealed that Zacatepec would cease to exist and relocate to the state of Michoacán to officially become Atlético Morelia. This was undoubtedly great news to all the Morelia fans who had their 70-year-old team pulled out roots and all, to become Mazatlán FC. The downside to this new project is the new Atlético Morelia won’t be competing in Liga MX, but rather in Liga de Expansion MX, which means they’ll have to wait at least this entire year before actually competing for promotion back to First Division.
