The Guard1anes 2021 and the Liga MX presents an interesting deck of DTs, with a mix of highly experienced technicians in large teams of Europe, in addition to South Americans who jumped to Mexico, in combination with the coaches who already have extensive experience in the national football.
SOLARI AND AGUIRRE OFFER THE EUROPEAN VISION
Javier Aguirre returned to Mexico after a career of 20 years as a coach abroad. The Basque reached the mighty Striped, all with a first-class career after leading the Atlético de Madrid, Osasuna, Espanyol, Zaragoza and Leganés, without leaving that behind he was also a selector of Japan and Egypt.
Let alone Santiago Solari. The American strategist comes up with very good references after leading Real Madrid during a season (2018-19), club with which he became the World cup for clubs of 2018, at a stage where the merengue team did not enjoy stability from the bench. The Argentinian took charge before returning Zinedine Zidane, bearing in mind that Solari was helmsman of the Real Madrid Castilla.
But they are not alone Aguirre and Solar those with vast European experience. For example, the Champion technician of the Liga MX, Ignacio Ambriz, who was exactly an assistant to the Vasco Aguirre both in Osasuna and in Atlético de Madrid. Another that also has European experience is the Runner-up Andrés Lillini, who worked for three years as a talent developer at the CSKA Moscow.
LARCAMÓN AND ROCCO, THE NEWS FROM SOUTH AMERICA
Among the new DTs two South Americans appear with interesting projects: Nicolás Larcamón in Puebla and Leonel Rocco Bee Saint Louis.
Larcamón, a 36-year-old Argentinian, may be the one with the best bill, as he hails from Chile’s Curicó Unido, team fighting for it Final South American Cup 2020. Before leading that club, he was in the Huachipato and Antofagasta in Chile and with him Deportivo Anzoátegui in Venezuela. He has not won any titles so far.
Like Rocco, Uruguayan 54 years old, he didn’t start his career until 2015 at the age of 49, first as an assistant and a year later as a coach of the Colonia Square from his country, which he managed in the 2016-17 season. From 2018 until last year, he was also Progreso’s helmsman Uruguay, although he was neither champion in either team.
THE ADDITION, EXPERIENCED IN MEXICO
And to top it all off, the deck with coaches is very well supplemented by those who already have a lot of experience Mexico:
- Luis Fernando Tena (Juárez)
- Victor Manuel Vucetich (Chivas)
- Tomás Boy (Mazatlán)
- José Guadalupe Cruz (Necaxa)
- Ricardo Ferretti (Tigres)
- Hernán Cristante (Toluca)
And those who accumulate miles like:
- Pablo Guede (Xolos)
- Diego Cocca (Atlas)
- Juan Reynoso (Cruz Azul)
- Héctor “Pity” Altamirano (roosters)
- Paulo Pezzolano (Pachuca)
- Guillermo Almada (Santos).
The fact is, you don’t have to worry.
