At the present time of Chivas, the player who has achieved an outstanding performance with the club is Alexis Vega. The striker became the vital element in creating offensive plays, however, despite his relevance to the Sacred Flock, so far he has not managed to reach an agreement for the renewal.

At the end of the 2022 Clausura, Vega's contract will come to an end, so it is vital to have an agreement before the appointed date, as the player could receive better offers before remaining in Verde Valle. At a press conference, Ricardo Peláez, sports director of the Guadalajara club, hinted at the reasons why the Olympic medalist has not yet been signed.

As Peláez explained, both sides are currently in a negotiation phase because the economic issue would be the main impediment for which they have not yet renewed the player. In the words of Ricardo Peláez, the footballer has some expectation to sign with Chivas, while the board of directors has financial limitations.

Although he did not want to disclose the amounts that are being discussed in the negotiations, he made it clear that the institution has certain “economic scope”.

“On the subject of Alexis, to tell you that we are building a contract that will leave us both parties satisfied. Alexis has economic expectations and sports dreams too and we have sports needs and economic scope.”

He also said that the negotiation began in 2021 and that it is an issue of vital importance for the club. As Peláez explained, shortly before the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, meetings were held with the player's representative and the rojiblaca board.

Even Ricardo Peláez said that talks with the player and the club are on the right track to sign it before the end of his contract.

“I think we're doing very well, that's the reality. If I remember correctly, we have been working on it since before the Olympic Games and this issue is a priority, we have been negotiating with Alexis and I think we are going to achieve a successful conclusion”.
