Guadalajara concluded its participation in the Clausura 2025 early and it was important to clarify several points regarding the team, which is why Javier Mier spoke at a press conference this Monday to face the moment.
The Rojiblanco Sporting Director began by confirming the first change in the Rebaño Sagrado for the next semester.
"Gerardo Espinoza will not continue as Chivas coach, we thank him for his professionalism during this time."
"A Sporting Directorate must take responsibility, I am here to show my face because this is not the place where the club deserves to be."
After the initial message, Mier delved into different topics about the team's immediate future and the contractual situation of several players.
"My responsibility is to look for different scenarios, we have to be prepared for any circumstance. I still can't advance anything, we have a deck of cards with different profiles and in due course we will make them known."
"I have the backing of the presidency and I feel committed, I know the club well. We will seek the highest by establishing the bases well, we want to have a very clear line of what we are looking for."
"The project is the club, not a single person. The coach who comes in will have to enhance the project that exists in the team."
"We want the coach who comes to understand the team he is coming to, we have an important backbone and we will seek to strengthen the team to put the team where it deserves",
"The hierarchy that Chicharito has is enormous within Mexican soccer, the spotlight always goes towards that type of profile. There is a lot of talk around Chivas, today Javier Hernandez is a Guadalajara player".
"We want 3 important pillars, we seek to strengthen our players, our trainers. We will try to capture the best Mexicans and third, strengthen the backbone we have.
"What we need is to take solid and firm steps in this project, I don't want to come here to promise things, I want to aim for the highest but establishing the foundations of the project well."
"Elimination is a failure, that's why I'm here to show my face."
"The new coach has to be steeped in the team's planning
"We want to find the point of balance, we are the best youth academy in Mexico, but saying that does not mean that we are not going to invest in players."
"We are looking for players to complement the squad. Nor is it about bringing in names for the sake of bringing in, of course we are looking for the best possible."
"We have very good communication with Hugo Camberos and his entourage, he knows what it means to be at Chivas."
"We cannot evade reality, we are living a failure."
"There are advanced conversations for Mateo Chávez, we have that openness for young Mexicans to grow".
"The presidency gave us all their support to bring the players we need, we will make the investment in the right way in search of having a good impact in the short, medium and long term".
"The decision of the new coach must be an intelligent one because it is a milestone for the project we seek to consolidate."
"Everyone in the team knows the role we play, we assume the responsibility that corresponds to us. The players are the protagonists, but the important thing is the shield."
"For the preseason we want to have the majority of the squad we will be counting on. Obviously, the coach will have to be in place first.
