How much is "Hormiga" González, the Chivas gem who is already being sought after outside of Mexico, worth?

Armando "Hormiga" González is experiencing his prime at Chivas . At just 22 years old, he has become the team's top scorer in the 2025 Apertura with seven goals and has earned a place in the starting lineup, even ahead of figures like "Chicharito" Hernández and Alan Pulido. His impact has been such that European clubs have already begun to follow in his footsteps.

According to data from the specialized portal Transfermarkt, the young striker's market value is currently €2.5 million , a figure that represents an estimate and not necessarily the price Chivas would set in the event of a negotiation. This is his highest recorded value to date, reached in September 2025.

González has been a key player in the team's resurgence under Gabriel Milito, who has provided him with confidence and continuity. This has drawn attention outside of Mexico, where media outlets such as El Francotirador report that teams in Russia and the Middle East have already begun exploring his contractual and financial situation , although there are no formal offers yet.

The Guadalajara club is seeking to renew his contract—which runs until the winter of 2026—to secure a better position in the event of a transfer abroad. For now, Milito urges calm: “He has to keep developing. Scoring seven goals is very good, but he still has a long way to go.”

Thus, while consolidating his position as one of the tournament's revelations, 'Hormiga' González could be taking his first steps toward international football .
