Now that La Fiera is officially out of the summer tournament, it’s a great time to bring up the topic of multi-club ownership in Liga MX.

Back in March, FIFA announced it's decision to remove León from the inaugural, new-look Club World Cup because the team is owned by Grupo Pachuca, the same group that owns fellow Liga MX side and Club World Cup participant, Pachuca. Multi-ownership is prohibited under Club World Cup regulations.

Mexican soccer club León has lost its appeal against FIFA and will not play in the Club World Cup next month in the United States.
