Blanco Urges Chicharito to Retire as Miss and New Video Fuel Backlash

Javier Hernández started Chivas’ Sept. 7 friendly in the United States and flubbed a close-range chance around the 12th–13th minute before the team beat León 2-1. Coverage noted Guadalajara’s performance lifted after Hernández was substituted, with goals from Armando González and Cade Cowell sealing the win. On Sept. 8, Hernández posted a new video recorded in the U.S. with a self-help message that split opinion, drawing comments urging him to focus on his play. In a Sept. 9 TUDN interview reported by RÉCORD, Cuauhtémoc Blanco said Chicharito should consider hanging up his boots, while also praising his career in Europe. Local reports continue to cite rumors that Chivas may not renew his contract expiring in December and that he is weighing retirement, with no official decision announced.
