The shape of him
Mateo Chávez is a 22-year-old defender at Guadalajara Chivas and a Mexico international. In 25/26 that meant 45 club appearances and 2,466 minutes. Defending is anticipation as much as tackling: reading the pass before it is played, holding the line, and starting the attack from the back.
The job
Win the individual duels, protect the space behind, and give the team a platform to build from.
