After some speculation, Orbelín Pineda will not return to Liga MX.

According to a report by ESPN's David Faitelson, Pineda has an agreement with Standard Liege of Belgium. A team that also had in its ranks the Mexican Guillermo Ochoa. The talks are on the right track and the Mexican player has rejected some proposals in order to arrive in Belgium.

In Mexico, it was reported that both Chivas de Guadalajara and Toluca offered him a highly competent salary worthy of someone with Pineda's experience. However, the matter never materialized due to the Mexican's refusal to return to his country to play in Liga MX.

How much would Pineda earn at Standard Liege?

The player could earn up to 500 thousand euros per year, a figure that is the salary quota established by the club for all foreign players. We will have to wait for the official confirmation of the transfer, but it seems that everything will be finalized soon.
