Homegrown players leave Chivas hurt
After the loan he had with Club León, where Macías shone with his own light and became one of the great promises in Mexican soccer. His return to Chivas was full of bitter moments and few joys for the Rojiblancos fans. Between injuries, his failed loan with Getafe in Spain and poor performance, it ended up being disappointing.
In Chivas de Guadalajara they saw José Juan Macías as their next great ‘9’ within the ownership. While they expected that he would currently be fighting for a position within the Mexican National Team, something that is not even close to earning a call-up.
What did José Juan Macías leave behind in Chivas?
It is so José Juan Macías and Chivas are stopping their paths, so we present you the numbers with which he says goodbye. The forward is on his way to Santos Laguna to continue his career and reunite with Ignacio Ambriz, who knew how to get the best out of the player at the time when they met at the Fiera.
To begin with, ‘JJ’ Macías barely leaves with a 2018 Concacaf Champions League as the only title achieved with Chivas. A tournament where he actually saw very little participation although he was part of the squad that took the trophy from the hand of Matías Almeyda.
Macías completed a total of 94 games with Chivas which meant five thousand 156 minutes inside the playing field. With 27 goals and one assist in their statistics. Being a quite questionable performance for the footballer, in terms of his numbers and the trophies that he was able to leave inside the display cases, which were practically non-existent.
With the arrival of Fernando Gago to Verde Valle, Macías barely saw action in a total of 7 games (6 in Liga MX and one in the CONCACAF Champions Cup). However, little by little he was erased because he was not liked by the coaching staff who forced him to look for a new destination in his career.
As if that were not enough, Macías went from be valued at a figure of 15 million dollars when they were looking to sell it to León. So that they are currently fighting to obtain just 3 million dollars if their sale is completed.
