Diego Coccafor his part, won a race in which there were trainers such as Guillermo Almada y Miguel Herrera. The Argentine was one of the coaches who seemed to have the least chance, but at the beginning of the week his name began to gain strength, until he ended up as the chosen one.
It is expected that Diego Cocca arrive in Mexico City in the morning, and then go to the High Performance Center and sign the contract that binds you to the Mexican team.
The Argentine takes the place of his compatriot, Gerardo Martino, who resigned from his position following being eliminated in the group stage of the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The former Barcelona coach had planned his departure before the competition began and he ended up saying goodbye when he was unable to meet the objectives.
Among the arguments for naming Diego Cocca as coach of the Mexican team there is the two-time championship that he won with Atlas and the ease he had to have a dressing room like the one in tigersin which he was five days and remained undefeated.
