Anderlecht Confirms Pelvic Surgery for César 'Chino' Huerta, Sidelining Winger Six to Eight Weeks

The layoff puts his national-team prospects in doubt as early‑2026 evaluations approach.

Overview

  • The Belgian club said Huerta underwent a pelvis operation after further tests and is expected to be out roughly six to eight weeks, pointing to a January–February 2026 return.
  • Huerta had been dealing with pubalgia for weeks, missing the last three Anderlecht games and the most recent Mexico call‑up.
  • He has 12 appearances and two goals this season across competitions, with his last outing on October 28 in the Belgian Cup, where he scored.
  • Anderlecht announced the procedure and timeline in an official statement shared on its social media channels.
  • The recovery window would likely rule him out of January national‑team microcycles, leaving his World Cup roster chances dependent on his rehabilitation and minutes after he returns.
