Chivas and Mexico national team center forward Armando González was named the most valuable player of the Liga MX Apertura 2025 season.
The 22-year-old striker was sensational for Chivas in the Apertura 2025, playing a key role in the team’s resurgence and impressive charge to the quarterfinal. In Gabriel Milito’s first season in charge, he opted against proven commodities such as Alan Pulido and Javier “Chicharito” Hernández, instead trusting González to lead the line.
