'Everything is possible' - Former Mexico manager Jaime Lozano won't rule out managing Chivas

<p>Chivas are deep into planning for the upcoming season, and one of the key decisions on the table is choosing a new head coach. Following a thorough internal review, the club is now focused on identifying the ideal replacement, with Jaime Lozano emerging as one of the leading contenders for the role.</p><p>Shortly after being knocked out of the Clausura 2025, Chivas confirmed the departure of Gerardo Espinoza, who managed only one win in his seven matches at the helm. A number of experienced names have been linked with the vacant position, including Robert Siboldi, Ignacio Ambriz, Nicolás Larcamón, Guillermo Almada, and Lozano—who currently remains without a team and is widely seen as an attractive option.</p><p>This past Sunday, the former Mexican national team coach was spotted attending the Kings League Américas. During a brief interview at the event, he was asked directly about the possibility of taking charge at Chivas and he didn't rule it out. </p><p> “I don’t know, anything is possible," he said. "Hopefully. It would be a great opportunity, a really beautiful experience. And the team you mention [Chivas] is one of the most beloved in all of Mexico."</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>While the manager search could be a positive step in the right direction, Chivas' fans are running out of patience. Frustration among fans has reached a boiling point, with growing calls for owner Amaury Vergara to step up both in terms of squad investment and in appointing a proven head coach. While the club’s CEO insists that significant resources have already been poured into the youth academy, training facilities, and infrastructure, supporters are demanding results on the pitch - results that, so far, have not materialized.</p><p>Could Lozano be the man to lead this long-awaited transformation?</p><p>The former Mexico national team coach has become a fan favorite to take over, and during a recent public appearance, he was once again asked about his relationship with Javier "Chicharito" Hernández. Lozano responded candidly, clarifying that while they are not close personally, he holds a great deal of respect for the striker. </p><p>“I don’t know him very well. I admire him, but we haven’t really developed a friendship," Lozano said. "I did get to watch him play once at the Santiago Bernabéu when he was with Real Madrid.”</p><p>As the search for a new head coach intensifies, the responsibility now rests with Chivas’ sporting director, Javier Mier. In the coming weeks, Mier is expected to lead the decision-making process and set the tone for what could be a crucial summer. Once a new coach is in place, the club will begin to assess the roster, identify reinforcements, and plan departures—all with the goal of building a squad capable of competing at the highest level in the next tournament.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>"I have the backing of the club president, I feel committed, and I know the club very well. We’re fully aware that this phase isn’t where we need to be, or where we should be starting from. But yes, I do have the support, I have the trust, I have open communication. I feel strong, and the people around every level of the club are giving me their full support and confidence to lead Chivas back to where the institution deserves to be," said the club's sporting president when asked if he feels capable of leading Chivas’ project.</p>

WHAT JAVIER MIER SAID

<p>It’s still unclear what the future holds for Hernández at Guadalajara. While sporting director Mier and his team continue planning for the Apertura 2025, players have been called to report for preseason on May 21. Later in the summer, between late July and early August, Chivas will compete in the Leagues Cup, where they share a group with the New York Red Bulls, FC Cincinnati, and Charlotte FC.</p>
