Chivas‘ dark times may not be over soon. Since Matias Almeyda, current MLS San Jose Earthquakes coach, departure, the club has been far away from good results. This is on sports issues. The new trouble may come from the economic angle, because of a lawsuit filed by one of its past figures thatcould cost huge money.
On December 2019, Alan Pulido , one of the most popular and vital players for Guadalajara during Almeyda’s golden era, announced his departure to Sporting Kansas City , in a move that represented severalmillion dollars inincome for el Rebaño Sagrado .
According toRecord’s column “El Francotirador”, Pulido decided to sueChivas to demand the fulfillment of the percentage he might have received for his transfer to MLS. The amount is equivalent to $1 million, but after the legal battle, it may double as a punishment, if FIFA’s Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) rules in favor of the soccer player.

The same mentioned source shares that Alan is not in a great moment right now: he is dealing with the lawsuit against Chivas, a worsenedknee injury, and heart issues with his wife Ileana Salas, the one could have moved back to Mexico and left the soccer player alone in Kansas City.
