Real Salt Lake knew that sooner or later there was going to be an MLS team that would take former assistant Robin Fraser to be its head coach. That moment finally arrived on Tuesday, as Chivas USA named the former Galaxy player as their new manager. “We’re extremely pleased he’s gotten this opportunity,” RSL manager Jason Kreis told MLSsoccer.com. “He’s been in contention last couple of years and occasionally felt hard done by that he didn’t get the opportunity sooner. “It’s well-deserved and no doubt he’s going to be fantastic head coach in the league. He leaves a gaping hole in our staff and we have to address it in fairly short order.” The hole is even greater given that Fraser will also be taking along the club’s director of the RSL-Arizona youth academy, Greg Vanney, who will now serve as Chivas USA assistant. Since Fraser was under contract with Real Salt Lake, the two Western Conference clubs have reached an agreement for minimal future considerations, according to RSL GM Garth Lagerwey. www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/kreis-fraser-leaves-gaping-hole-rsl

Another new direction: Chivas USA part ways with sporting president Dennis te KloeseGUADALAJARA, Mexico – CD Guadalajara and Chivas USA sporting president Dennis te Kloese left the institution on Monday after less than a year on the job. “Dennis te Kloese has left his post,” read a brief press statement from the Guadalajara club on Monday. “Club Deportivo Guadalajara SA de CV thanks Dennis te Kloese for his effort and professionalism in this period of a year as Chivas sporting president.” Te Kloese was hired on Christmas Eve 2012, weeks after Johan Cruyff was sacked as an advisor to the institution. The Dutchman vowed to strengthen links between the Guadalajara and Los Angeles clubs in order to improve the MLS franchise, but both teams have suffered a disappointing 12 months, with Chivas USA finishing last in the Western Conference and Guadalajara winning just five Liga MX games all year. www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2013/12/23/another-new-direction-chivas-part-ways-sporting-president-dennis-te-kloese
