Through the methodology and playing model that he usually develops, the Spanish coach will strive to ensure that the Holy Flock can become the protagonist of their matches through possession of the ball,” the club said in a statement.
“We are confident that Oscar Garcia’s experience, preparation and management of the group will be the key to Chivas’ success next semester,” he added.

He won four titles with Salzburg and one with Maccabi Tel Aviv.
“Every team, every country I have coached in has given me the opportunity to experience many aspects of this fantastic sport. I believe in the versatility of football and strategy, I want my teams to be active and active to control the game, my goal is always the same: to win,” Garcia said in a video posted on the club’s social networks.
