Uncertain Future: Will Veljko Paunovic Leave Chivas After Painful Elimination?

Veljko Paunovic could leave Chivas as soon as the day after the painful elimination by a landslide against Pumas in the Apertura 2023. At least, the possibility exists, since we have been able to confirm that there is a clause in the European coach’s contract that It could mean the end of his cycle at Deportivo Guadalajara.

With a balance, after two complete tournaments, that translates into a Liga MX Final with a defeat against Tigres in the Clausura 2023 and a Quarterfinal lost against the Pumas after being fifth in the table this semester, Paunovic gave new life for Chivas after so much searching for someone to return hope to the fans.

Is Paunovic leaving Chivas? This is what we know

Our colleague Rodrigo Camacho has inquired with sources close to the institution about the possible future of Veljko Paunovic and the answer could be in the unilateral clause that he would exercise, since his participation in the Clausura 2023 has concluded, in which he would leave without much alternative to the red and white board.

Paunovic’s contract with Chivas was signed for three calendar years at the end of 2022. It establishes an annual evaluation period and that is where the section comes in that Veljko could use if he wanted to look for a new adventure, as was so widely rumored. forces this same tournament with Almería from Spain.

At the end of each year, either of the two parties (management or coach) can terminate the contract unilaterally, if the results are not as expected or the conditions to continue in the position are not considered optimal. This is how, by exercising this option, Paunovic could leave Chivas in December 2023.

Conditions that Paunovic would set to stay at Chivas

So far, what we have been able to know is that Amaury Vergara and Fernando Hierro have complete confidence in the project, however, Pauno is the one who would have doubts about staying at Chivas, putting that decision on the side of the board so that a squad can be formed. more complete and competitive.

Guadalajara will play Liga MX and Concacaf Champions League next year, so Veljko would ask for specific reinforcements for the center forward, central midfielder and, perhaps, someone in defense. If he does not see a substantial improvement in the build, the Serbian would seriously consider abandoning the project.
