Impact on Chivas Guadalajara
Getting Richie Ledezma is gonna make Chivas Guadalajara’s team a lot stronger. As they get ready for the 2025 Apertura season getting Ledezma is really smart to make their midfield better. Playing in the Eredivisie with PSV Eindhoven and doing good at New York City FC in MLS shows he can do lots of different things and will probably do really well in Liga MX.
Broader Implications for MLS
Ledezma moving is part of what’s happening where MLS helps young players get better before they move to other leagues. His path from Major League Soccer to a big Liga MX team is kinda like other players like Kevin De Bruyne who might go to Chicago Fire. When leagues work together like this it helps players get better and makes soccer better everywhere.
