Ricardo Marín says Chivas aim for Apertura 2026 championship

Forward Ricardo Marín stated at a press conference on September 9, 2026, that Guadalajara remains focused on winning the Apertura tournament title. Speaking from Verde Valle ahead of the upcoming Matchday 8 fixture against Pumas, Marín emphasized that the team maintains a high level of demand despite its strong performance in the current standings. The striker, who has contributed four goals this tournament, credited the squad's collective work and internal competition for his individual success. Guadalajara continues to prepare for the Pumas match while maintaining a game-by-game approach, intentionally postponing considerations regarding future opponents like América. Marín also acknowledged the professional development of teammates Hugo Camberos and Santiago Sandoval, as well as the recent departure of Armando González to Europe.
