Career
Jasso was a passionate fan of Club Deportivo Guadalajara even as a child. So it was no wonder that the football enthusiast and talented boy soon donned the red and white jersey of his favorite club. He made his debut on March 17, 1946 in a league game of the 1945/46 season at Club San Sebastián de León , which was lost 2-0. In the next ten years, during which he studied hard and trained hard, but was often only a substitute, he played in almost every position in defense and midfield.
Over time, he matured into the undisputed leader of the "Campeonísimo", so that his teammate Salvador Reyes , who is the most successful goalscorer in the history of Chivas Guadalajara, would later call him a human symbol of the club . He played for Deportivo Guadalajara and one season for Nacional de Guadalajara throughout his career .
Juan "el Bigotón" Jasso played his last game on October 23, 1966 at the age of 40 in a 3-0 win against CF Madero . After finishing his football career, Jasso became a businessman and opened a snack bar and a sports shop, both of which he ran until his death. Juan Jasso, who with his late wife in 1997 had eight children, died on 23 July 2002 in his hometown of Guadalajara in a battle with cancer .
