As you know, Chivas has already begun its journey in the Clausura 2026 with the aim of arriving in the best way for the debut against Pachuca at the Akron Stadium. This afternoon Guadalajara leaves for Isla Navidad to continue the preseason and Gabriel Milito confirmed those called up without the presence of men like Alan Mozo and Érick Gutiérrez. In turn, the Argentine brings at least 7 players from the basic forces.
There is no doubt that The Argentine coach wants to make a difference from day one when he begins to prepare for a tournament. It is for this reason that he did not hesitate to take players who have performed in the best way to his demands in the first semester under his technical direction, which led him to say goodbye in the first round of the Apertura 2025 Liguilla.
This afternoon Gabriel Milito not only confirmed Chivas’ squad to face the preseason, but also made it clear that he will not have Eduardo García, Leonardo Sepúlveda, Luis Olivas, Alan Mozo, Érick Gutiérrez, Teun Wilke and Alan Pulido. It is for this reason that The Argentine coach decided to bring 8 homegrown players to make up for losses in each of the team’s lines.
Among the new features stands out the presence of Ángel Chávez, who arrived from Necaxa, Brian Gutiérrez, a player signed from Chicago Fire, and Ricardo Marín, who returned from his loan with Puebla. To them we must add players who were injured in the Apertura 2025 and who would have recovered, such as Armando González, Diego Campillo and Miguel Tapias.
