One of the sources of conflict is with Chivas de Guadalajara, which has several players on the preliminary list, such as Raúl Rangel, Luis Romo, Roberto “Piocchio” Alvarado and Armando González, in the middle of their quarter-final series against Tigres. The club is not willing to release all of its players under these conditions.
The tension was further increased by a special permit granted to Toluca, which is competing in the semifinals of the Concachampions and will be able to retain its players, which generated criticism from the rest of the institutions for unequal treatment.
With this scenario, the relationship between the Tri and the clubs is going through a delicate moment. While Aguirre seeks to ensure the best possible preparation for the World Cup that will be played in their territory, together with the United States and Canada, the teams defend their sporting interests in the final stretch of the
local championship.
