💎With a Barcelona past, Chivas sign a new gem

Club Deportivo Guadalajara continues its strategy of recruiting young Mexican-American prospects to strengthen its youth divisions. This Friday, the signing of Kevin García, an 18-year-old attacking midfielder arriving from Central Valley Fuego FC of USL League One (the third division in the United States), was made official.

The transfer has been described by his previous club as a record-breaking deal in economic terms for the California institution. Although he will initially join the youth teams or Tapatío, the management led by Alejandro Manzo and Javier Mier sees him as a potential first-team player in the medium term.

Training with a Blaugrana stamp

The most notable aspect of García’s profile is his development process. Before making his professional debut in the USL at age 16, the young midfielder spent nearly two years at the Barça Residency Academy in the United States, where he acquired the tactical fundamentals of the Barcelona style of play.

With this move, Chivas reinforces its commitment to being the main destination for young talent with dual nationality, aiming to secure generational renewal for Gabriel Milito’s team.
