Tue Mar 04 03:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Chivas Parts Ways with Coach Óscar García Junyent
**Guadalajara, Mexico** – Chivas de Guadalajara announced the departure of their head coach, Óscar García Junyent, on [Date]. The Spanish coach’s tenure ended after just ten Liga MX matches and two Concacaf Champions Cup games, by mutual agreement.
The club thanked García Junyent and his coaching staff for their contributions but stated that his project wasn’t yielding the desired results. While Chivas currently sits in ninth place in the Liga MX standings with 14 points after a recent victory over Pumas (a match managed intermediately by José Meléndez), the decision reflects a desire for a change in direction. The team did advance to the Round of 16 in the Concacaf Champions Cup, where they will face Club América starting this Wednesday.
Following García Junyent’s dismissal, the club also dissolved the technical-sports committee recently established with Spanish involvement. Javier Mier will now take the helm of the club’s sporting decisions. Chivas faces the immediate challenge of appointing a new head coach before their crucial Concacaf Champions Cup match against América this Wednesday at Estadio Akron.
