The Mexican National Team went through a strange restructuring within its ranks. John Carlos Rodríguez, commissioner of the FMF, took the first step by dismissing Diego Coke from his position as the team’s coach. Along with the Argentine, Rodrigo Ares of Parga also left his administrative role.
Now, Jaime Lozano finds himself with a whole package of problems as he is appointed as the team’s interim head coach. ‘El Jimmy’ will have the opportunity to calm the waters that have been turbulent since the Qatar World Cup. However, he will have to face several changes within the team.
One of these changes, according to Fútbol Total, could be the departure of Duilio Davino from his position as director of national teams, with the possible arrival of Ricardo Pelaez. Davino’s time may be running out, especially considering that he signed a contract for only 3 months. In other words, once the Gold Cup is over, he will no longer be part of the national team.
Continued Changes in the Mexican National Team
Undoubtedly, the news of Davino’s possible departure from the national team highlights the major issues in its planning. The time to establish a serious project has been available since Gerardo Martino’s departure. Therefore, consistency should be one of the qualities that the higher authorities need to prioritize if they are seeking positive results in the 2026 World Cup.
