Midfielder Sergio Canales is opening a new chapter in his career after an intense spell in Mexico with Rayados de Monterrey. Coming from a long career in Spain, Canales has experienced everything since his signing in 2023 and is now seriously considering a return to his home country, with Racing de Santander as the main focus.

The Mexican adventure of the Spanish midfielder

When Sergio Canales arrived in Monterrey, many saw him as the player who would not only open doors for himself but also for other compatriots like Sergio Ramos and Óliver Torres. The Cantabrian did not disappoint: he assumed leadership, raised his goal-scoring level, and became a key piece of the Monterrey team.

In the Apertura 2025, he has already scored six goals in eight games, his best start since joining Rayados. His influence in the locker room has been immediate, both in the sporting and emotional aspects. However, with his contract set to expire in June next year, rumors about his future continue to grow.

Return to Racing de Santander?

As reported by EstadioDeportivo, the idea of returning to Spain is gaining momentum in Sergio Canales's narrative. From the environment of Racing de Santander, his training club, it has been acknowledged that the player's dream has always been to wear the green and white shirt again.

The president of the Cantabrian club, Manolo Higuera, recently confessed that he has a close relationship with the midfielder and that they have exchanged messages in recent months. "His dream is to play for Racing again, and it doesn't matter if it's in Primera or Segunda Division. I’m convinced that in the short term, we will see him back here," stated the president.

For his part, Canales has not hidden his desire to return to Spain. In a recent interview, he stated: "At this moment, I see myself here, out of respect and affection shown to me by both the fans and Monterrey, but I would like to return to Spain to play when the time comes. Betis? I don't rule that out, nor do I rule out Racing. They are the two teams I identify with the most."

Factors influencing his decision

Several factors could define Sergio Canales's immediate future. His contract with Rayados de Monterrey expires in 2026, allowing a possible cost-free transfer if he decides not to renew.

Emotionally, the bond with Racing de Santander weighs more than ever. It is the club where he grew up, where he made his debut, and where he has always been welcomed with open arms. Additionally, the Cantabrian team is going through a process of sporting consolidation that could serve as the ideal context for his return.

In addition, there is his yearning to compete again in the Spanish League, a competition where he left his mark with Betis and where he still feels he has more to offer before retiring.

Between Monterrey and Santander: an undecided future

In Mexico, Sergio Canales has left a profound mark. His leadership and technical quality have made him an immediate reference for Rayados, in addition to being one of the standout foreigners in the Liga MX in recent years.

However, all signs point to his Mexican adventure possibly having an expiration date. The player is seriously considering fulfilling his dream of returning home to Racing de Santander, which eagerly awaits him.

The story, in any case, has a nostalgic touch: the boy who left El Sardinero to conquer Europe and who now, after succeeding in Mexico, could return to complete the circle.

The outcome is still unwritten, but it is a fact that Sergio Canales is currently experiencing one of the most decisive moments of his career, torn between the stability offered by Rayados de Monterrey and the emotional call of his homeland, Spain.
