Mexico Appoint Tuca Ferretti As Interim Manager

Tigres manager Ricardo Tuca Ferretti has been appointed as the interim manager of Mexico national team. It’s the third time that the manager has accepted the job on an interim basis.

Ferretti will coach Mexico in the September window. Mexico will take on Uruguay on 7th September and United States on 11th September. But it is unclear if he will coach the national team beyond that.

Mexico released a statement on Monday:
“The Mexican Football Federation is happy to inform that it has arrived at an agreement with coach Ricardo Ferretti and Club Tigres for him to manage the Mexican national team as an interim. He will be available in the games El Tricolor will take part in during the next FIFA dates.”

Mexico also is set to take part in matches during the October and November windows. But opponents and sites for those matches are yet to be announced. Ferretti has been with Tigres since 2010. He has won  four league titles along the way. He also is the favorite to succeed departed El Tri manager Juan Carlos Osorio for many Liga MX owners.

However, the manager is not interested to take a long term job. The last time he took over the national team also came during a moment of transition. Miguel Herrera was fired after the 2015 Gold Cup for a physical altercation with a broadcaster. Ferretti stepped in and led Mexico to a 3-2 victory over the United States in the CONCACAF Cup.

His side also won against Panama later in that window. Mexico drew with Trinidad and Tobago and Argentina as well under Ferretti, before Osorio took over in the November 2015 qualifiers.<
