The enthusiasm and commitment with which Amalia López arrived at the Redil a few months ago have paid off, as the young Rojiblanca will be registered with the Guadalajara First Team for the 2025 Clausura of the Liga MX Femenil.
The skillful Mexican-American grew up playing soccer from a very young age, with beginnings in indoor soccer and futsal. There she forged a vision of the field, along with an individual quality within the reach of very few, which helped her to make the leap to 11-a-side soccer competitions.
It was Amalia's talent that attracted the attention of several clubs on the pink circuit, but it was clear in Lopez's mind where she wanted to play. Of course, the constant scouting work by the Chivas Femenil Sports Directorate detected the opportunity and presented her with the possibility of joining the club of her love with the Under 19 team, with the possibility of integrating into the dynamics of the First Team.
Amalia joined the Rojiblanca preseason in Isla Navidad, where she soon attracted attention for her ball handling, use of space and an important mid-range shot. His season started off on the right foot, as he made his debut in the first match against Atlas, scoring just 5 minutes into the game.
She continued to play until she began to be considered for the First Team, with which she saw her first minutes on Day 3 against Mazatlán at the Akron Stadium. In total, she played 4 matches with the Rebaño Femenil in AP24 and scored a great goal against Necaxa, stepping on the ball at the entrance of the area to shoot from half distance and nailing it into the side netting. With the U19 team, she played 11 games and scored 5 times, helping the team qualify for the Quarterfinals.
With a view to bolstering the Rojiblanco squad towards CL25, the Guadalajara Femenil Sports Directorate decided to formally add her to the team, thus continuing with the commitment to detect the best Mexican talent possible for the country's most beloved and popular team.
