The Serie A was created in the second half of 2008, with the participation and approval of the owners of the teams of the Second and Third Division, being next to Serie B part of the Liga Premier.

As of the 2023–24 Season, Cancun, Celaya, Correcaminos UAT, Mineros de Zacatecas, Cimarrones de Sonora and Leones Negros all from Liga de Expansión MX will join the Liga Premier to give young players professional experience. However, only Correcaminos UAT, Cimarrones de Sonora and Leones Negros UdeG will have a reserve team, while Cancun, Celaya and Mineros de Zacatecas will have an associated team that will have its own identity.
