I guess that one minor issue got resolved.

The official phraseology: “Chivas USA announced today that Colombian forward Juan Pablo Angel will remain with the club during the 2012 MLS season. Details on the conversations were not released.”

“At Chivas USA we are committed to assembling the best possible team, and having Juan Pablo Angel continue [with the team] for the 2012 season is proof of our organization’s commitment,” said the Red-and-White’s General Manager Jose Domene. “We know that Angel will have another great campaign, just like he did last season, bringing joy to our fans with his goals.”

Chivas USA plays Houston at Home Depot Center Sunday in their home opener.

Former Aston Villa striker Angel, a dud with the Galaxy last year, scored seven goals in nine games for Chivas USA at the tail end of last season.
