Club Deportivo Guadalajara S.A de C.V., nicknamed "Chivas" and simply known as Guadalajara or internationally as Chivas de Guadalajara, is a Mexican professional football club based in the Guadalajara metropolitan area, Jalisco. It competes in the Liga MX, the top division of Mexican football. The club was founded in 1906 as Unión Football Club, then changed its name to Guadalajara Football Club in 1908, and then changed to its current name in 1923.
Guadalajara was one of the founding members of the Liga Mayor in 1943, which was the first professional football league created in Mexico, and is one of seven teams that have never been relegated.
Guadalajara have played their home matches at Estadio Akron in Zapopan since 2010, having previously played at Estadio Jalisco. Guadalajara 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. The team's three colors symbolize "Fraternity, Union, and Sports".
