🧹Clear-out at Chivas: Miguel Tapias on the transfer list | OneFootball

Guadalajara has begun to make moves ahead of the 2026 Apertura Tournament. With the aim of restructuring the squad and making room for new signings, the club’s board has reportedly informed defender Miguel Tapias that he is not part of the main plans and has officially been placed on the transfer list.

Relegated in Milito’s system

The center back lost prominence in Argentine head coach Gabriel Milito’s setup. During the most recent playoff stage, Tapias was relegated to the bench in the key series against Cruz Azul, where the manager preferred to use Bryan González. Although his departure is not due to any direct conflict with the coach, the player knows that his playing time would be minimal if he decides to remain at the club.

Generational turnover and the market

Chivas’ decision is also based on the return of academy products Diego Ochoa and Luis Rey, along with the rise of youngster Ángel Chávez. At the same time, the board is looking to use these departures to facilitate other deals; the club is reportedly negotiating the signing of Denzell García (FC Juárez), offering defender Gilberto Sepúlveda as part of the payment.
