Club Deportivo Guadalajara S.A de C.V., simplified as CD Guadalajara, and also known as Chivas de Guadalajara, is a Mexican professional football club based in the Guadalajara metropolitan area, Jalisco. It competes in Liga MX, the top division of Mexican football, and plays its home matches at the Estadio Akron.
Founded in 1906 as Unión Football Club, the club changed its name to Guadalajara Football Club in 1908, and then changed to its current name in 1923. Nicknamed Chivas, it was one of ten founding members in 1943 of the first professional and national league in Mexico, named Liga Mayor. Guadalajara is one of seven Mexican clubs that have never been relegated.
Chivas is the only football club in Mexico that does not sign foreign players unless they are of Mexican descent. The team has historically relied on home-grown players and has been the launching pad of many internationally successful players, including Javier Hernández, Carlos Vela and Carlos Salcido, among others.
