“It’s true, we’re working together,” said Wynalda, who added that there have been talks with Chivas officials but would not go into specifics. “Honestly, it would be a flat-out honor towork with these guys. We’re available, we want to do this.
“We’re very interested in getting involved. When [Ramon, Claudio and I] discuss [the possibility], we just want theopportunity to pass on what we know, what we’ve gained [from our experiences].”
