The 2025 season was not the best for Emelec, and although it was not the worst, the club is determined to change its entire squad by 2026. The electric team was left with nothing this season, which is why there are several players who would leave the squad by 2026.
Some departures occur by decision of the players, due to the debts that the club has with them, and others because their contract ends and the board no longer wants them on the squad. These departures include players like Luis Fernando León or Pedro Ortiz who have already tired of the club’s current dynamics.
On the other hand, there are other players like Juan Pablo Ruiz, Facundo Castelli, Washington Corozo, Maicon Solis, Roberto Garces, Jostin Cuero, Jackson Rodríguez, and others end their contract in 2025and the club has not renewed them for 1 more year.
Although several players will leave Emelec, fans are not worried about the exodus of players. Since several of these elements did not even play many minutes in the season or make a difference on the field.

On the other hand, the Emelec board must ensure that these exits are closed in the best way possible. Because If these players leave and are not paid the money that corresponded to them, several lawsuits could arise from FEF and FIFA that would lead to other sanctions.
