Fernando Gago opens up about his Chivas exit | OneFootball

The Apertura 2025 will kick off with a match full of intrigue: Fernando Gago will reunite with Chivas, the team he coached before moving to Boca Juniors.

The Argentine, now Necaxa’s coach, broke his silence about his controversial departure from El Rebaño.

Gago admitted that his time at Chivas was key for his career, highlighting the team’s strong performance during his tenure.

“We generated excitement, we dominated the matches, and the group felt comfortable with the work,” he told TUDN.

Despite the connection he created with the club and the fans, he confessed that he couldn’t resist the call from Boca, his home and his dream.

“It was an emotional decision, not a rational one. It didn’t turn out as I wanted, but I don’t regret it,” he assured.

Finally, he acknowledged that he prefers to stay away from social media due to the criticism he has received from both Chivas and Necaxa fans.

“I don’t read comments; I focus on analyzing football on my own without distractions,” he concluded.
