This is how Gabriel Milito, the new top candidate to join Chivas, has fared.

In recent weeks, the possibility of Gabriel Milito becoming Chivas ' next coach has gained momentum. According to the 365Scores website , the board of directors of the red-and-white team has already held a meeting with the Argentine coach, who expressed interest in the project presented to him.

This includes a one-year contract with an option to extend, a boost to young talent, and financial terms that were attractive to him. It's worth noting that this negotiation is taking place alongside talks with Domènec Torrent , another candidate for the bench.

It's important to remember that Milito had already been considered by Chivas in January 2024, when Ricardo Peláez revealed that the former Barcelona defender was one of the initial options before Fernando Gago took over as technical director.

Currently, Milito, 43, is without a team after his time at Atlético Mineiro , where he was in charge until the end of 2024. Throughout his coaching career, he has managed 308 matches , achieving 130 wins, 79 draws and 99 losses , in addition to winning a title.

During his time at Mineiro, he officiated in 62 matches, with a record of 23 wins, 20 draws, and 19 losses . Under his command, the team reached the Copa Libertadores final after eliminating renowned clubs such as River Plate and Fluminense , although a losing streak in the local league led to his departure.

His career as a strategist also includes an extensive stint with Argentinos Juniors , where he officiated over 135 matches between 2021 and 2023 with an effectiveness rate of over 50%, as well as previous experience with Estudiantes de La Plata, Independiente, and O'Higgins of Chile.
