Players who got a new opportunity with Milito after having one foot out of Chivas

With the arrival of Gabriel Milito, there are players in the red and white team who have received a second chance . They were close to leaving the squad and have now been considered for the team's preseason, so they could have a second wind in the ranks of the red and white team for the 2025 Apertura Tournament.

In the planning for the next semester, the list of elements that would leave the institution included the names of Daniel Aguirre , Alan Mozo and Omar Govea , among others, are considered potential candidates to leave the club. This is intended to strengthen certain areas of the pitch, so they would be used as bargaining chips.

Players like Víctor Guzmán and Fernando Beltrán weren't to the coach's liking, leading them to leave the club. Alan Mozo , who had been on the chopping block, was eventually brought back by Milito after he felt he could contribute to the project and style of play he was seeking with Chivas, so he will remain with the club.

However, unlike Mozo, who had been active last semester, players like Daniel Aguirre and Omar Govea were removed from the red-and-white team, despite the change of coaches and projects. Govea registered minimal activity, while Aguirre hasn't played a single minute in Liga MX with the first team.

What seemed like it would be his last tournament with Guadalajara, for Omar Govea, has a sense of revenge, as he only played four matches in his last semester, totaling 109 minutes. Now, with Milito, he has started two matches and scored a goal in the match against Atlante, which secured Chivas a place in the Copa Morelos final.

For his part, Daniel Aguirre has started all three of Chivas' preseason matches. However, unlike his teammates, he didn't start in his usual position after Milito and his assistants decided to play him at center back . The coach has been pleased with him, and he intends to continue using him in that position for the remainder of the preseason.

With just a few days left until the start of the 2025 Apertura Tournament, Daniel Aguirre, Alan Mozo, and Omar Govea will have the opportunity to secure a spot in Gabriel Milito's starting eleven , going from being "forgotten" elements in the squad to being recovered by the Argentine strategist.
