Ranger's FC continues to suffer a talent drain amid unpaid wages and poor form.
The Andorran club, led by former Mexican professional Marco Fabián, has seen several key players depart in recent weeks. Midfielder Andrés Iniestra, who came through the Pumas UNAM youth system, left for Coyotes de Tlaxcala in Mexico's Liga de Expansión MX at the start of December. He featured in 11 matches for Ranger's, logging 656 minutes.
Following his exit, left-back Luciano Bocco has signed with Jaiba Brava de Tampico-Madero ahead of the Clausura 2026 campaign. The Mexico City defender, whose father Pablo also played for the club, appeared in 11 games for Ranger's, scoring once against CE Carroi and accumulating 892 minutes.
Midfielder Dylan Guajardo, a high-profile arrival from Monterrey, has also moved on after 11 outings, 820 minutes, and two goals—one against CE Carroi and another versus Esperança.
These are not isolated cases for a squad that has gone four months without receiving salaries. Ranger's, which topped the table early in the season, now sits fourth in the Lliga Multisegur Assegurances with 20 points. The team has endured three straight defeats and faces Penya Encarnada in the Copa Constitució Valira Seguretat round of 16 on Sunday.
