Alan Pulido gave a hint to Chivas de Guadalajara
After the elimination of the Sacred Flock of Clausura 2026, Alna Pulido used her social networks to send an enigmatic criticism of Gabriel Milito's process
Chivas de Guadalajara experienced a bitter moment in the semifinals of the Clausura 2026 tournament of Liga MX. Gabriel Milito's Sacred Flock was on the verge of reaching a new final. Alan Pulido used his social networks to send an enigmatic message after the elimination of Chivas.
Gabriel Milito's team faced Cruz Azul in the semifinals of Clausura 2026. In the first leg, the Rebaño Sagrado did not go beyond a 2-2 draw. But in the return leg, “The Machine” took the series forward and achieved a 1-2 victory that put them in the final of the tournament.
Alan Pulido shared a photograph on his social networks with an enigmatic message that may be directed at Chivas de Guadalajara and the process of Gabriel Milito. “Mongo is not the same as gorilla, they look similar but it is not the same…” wrote the Mexican striker.
Indirect from Alan Pulido?
There is a great relationship between Alan Pulido's phrase and the context of Gabriel Milito's process. The Argentine strategist has managed to get Chivas de Guadalajar to compete again within Liga MX. Milito's process has been constantly compared to that of Matías Almeyda. Pulido has been in both.
Alan Pulido was a prominent piece in Matías Almeyda's project with the Sacred Flock. “Puligol” scored 41 goals that were a great contribution so that “Pelado” could win several titles in the process. Both won the Liga MX Clausura 2017, Copa MX Clausura 2017 and the Concacaf Champions League 2018.
Gabriel Milito's process has been compared to that of Almeyda. But there are a couple of peculiarities. The first of them is the absence of titles in the military path; The second was the exclusion of Alan Pulido from the team.
Alan Pulido could not mesh with Gabriel Milito's philosophy. The Mexican striker was identified as a player who had committed some actions lacking discipline. Pulido only played 21 games upon his return in which he scored 2 goals. In April 2026 the termination of his contract was made official. Currently, “Puligol” is a free agent and his phrase has very direct clues that link it to the Sacred Flock.
