San Diego FC could secure a major boost with the potential signing of Hirving Lozano from PSV
This time, attention turns to San Diego FC, which seems poised to secure a significant reinforcement: Hirving Lozano, the talented Mexican winger from PSV. Advanced negotiations between the parties indicate that the player, known as “Chucky,” may be on his way to the United States for an estimated fee of around $12 million. If confirmed, this signing could represent a major boost not only for San Diego FC but also for MLS as a whole.
At 28 years old, Lozano has already made his mark in European soccer. His technical ability, speed, and finishing prowess have made him a key player for both PSV and the Mexican national team. With 6 goals and 3 assists this season in the Eredivisie, along with 70 appearances for his country, Lozano not only brings a vast array of skills but also valuable experience in high-level competitions.

The potential transfer of Lozano to San Diego FC would not only add quality to the American club’s squad but would also be a significant milestone for MLS. The league has been consistently striving to enhance its reputation and attractiveness, both domestically and internationally. The arrival of a player of Lozano’s caliber would not only raise the technical level of the competition but also attract more attention to MLS.
Furthermore, Lozano’s signing by San Diego FC could pave the way for more Mexican players in MLS. Mexican soccer boasts a fervent fan base and a rich tradition in the sport, and the presence of Mexican players in the American league could further strengthen ties between the two nations and increase interest in soccer in the United States.
It’s important to consider the challenges that a move to MLS may pose for Lozano. Adapting to a new country, style of play, and culture can take time, and not all players manage to shine immediately in a different environment. Additionally, the level of competition in MLS, while continually evolving, may still not be as high as that of European leagues like the Eredivisie. Lozano would need to adjust to this difference and continue to develop his game to succeed in the new league.
MLS has been increasingly competitive and attractive to players from around the world. With growing investments in infrastructure, youth academies, and high-profile signings, the league is solidifying itself as a viable option for players at different stages of their careers. Lozano’s arrival could be an important step in this journey of growth and ambition for MLS.

Organized Labor Rallies Around Cindy Chavez as Next San Diego County CAO | San Jose Inside
Sources say Santa Clara County Supervisor Cindy Chavez has re-applied for the position of Chief Administrative Officer in San Diego County, where organized labor is turning up the heat to pressure the county board of supervisors to include her among finalists for the $400,000-a-year post.
Members of SEIU Local 221 and the local United Domestic Workers union, supported by the San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council, held a public rally outside the county administration building on Tuesday, pushing for Chavez’ appointment as the supervisors met behind closed doors to discuss the hiring process for CAO, the county’s top staff position.
A flier and poster for the “Rally for Transparent CAO Process” that was posted on Instagram, called on union members to “Tell the board to interview Cindy Chavez, a champion for working families, as a finalist for Chief Administrative Officer.”
Chavez, former director of the South Bay Labor Council in San Jose and a two-time unsuccessful candidate for mayor of San Jose, was considered the top candidate for the San Diego CAO early last year.
Her San Diego appointment was scuttled at the last minute, when a sexual harassment scandal forced the resignation of Supervisor Nathan Fletcher – husband of Chavez friend and political ally, state labor leader Lorena Gonzales Fletcher – and the postponement of the CAO search until after the November election. When another Democrat was elected to fill Fletcher’s seat, supervisors re-advertised the position and told prior applicants they would need to re-apply if they were still interested.
In mid-April, the influential online news outlet, the Voice of San Diego, reported that Chavez “is once again interested in the role.” Chavez has consistently not responded to requests for comment, and county officials have not identified any of the current applicants.
At Tuesday’s rally, the focus was on new board chair Nora Vargas to support “a transparent process that will include candidates supported by the community.”
The union leaders claimed that the supervisors last spring actually voted “to hire a pro-worker, Latina candidate [Chavez] to become the next Chief Administrative Officer, but the board suddenly changed its mind and rescinded the offer.” The board never revealed any details of its private deliberations.
The union leaders called the board’s action to change its mind on the Chavez appointment a “flip-flop [that] is unacceptable and could seriously harm the future of care in the county for years to come.”
In the Instagram post, the union leaders called on the county “to create a public, transparent process where the public can meet the finalists.”
The Voice of San Diego reported that the county apparently responded, and is expected to name semi-finalists this month. Each county supervisor will be able to nominate two constituents to interview them before finalists are put forward by the end of the month.
Also, in mid-April the executive committee of the San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council approved a resolution in support of Chavez’ application to be the new county CAO.
The proposed resolution will now go to the full group of delegates that represent all the unions within the Labor Council. It follows a similar resolution by the San Diego County Democratic Party.
Crystal Irving, president of SEIU 221, which represents over 10,000 San Diego County employees, told the Voice of San Diego last month: “We are at a crossroads. We can either cling to the conservative ‘financial experience’ that prioritizes old fiscal policies, or we can embrace a bold, progressive future that truly serves all community members. Our coalition of Democrats, union members and progressives feel Cindy Chavez embodies this much needed change and will deliver on the board’s pro-worker vision for the future.”
