Maradona wants to coach in Mexico!

September 23rd, 2007 | By: Kevin Zelaya | 4 Comments »

After two unsuccessful coaching stints in Argentina, Diego Maradona feels its time for a coaching comeback. This time in Mexico! He´s admitted that he loves Mexico, where he won the World Cup in 1986, so will Maradona be the next in a long line of Argentines to coach in Mexico? And if so where would he fit best?

Let me know if you can think of any more but here´s a short list of some coaching hotspots to be on the lookout for:

Atlas: Argentine coach Ruben Omar Romano is gone after his team´s loss to Jaguares, which ended a spell where he went nine games without a win!

America: After an ugly loss to Santos a few weeks back, Luis Fernando Tena´s role as coach looked shaky but after a tie with Tigres and this weekend´s loss to San Luis, club Vice President Pedro Portilla said he´s sticking with Tena for now. It seems like after every game Tena is looking over his shoulder wondering if he might be gone.

Tigres: Okay so the Tigres are fighting relegation and the higher-ups have said no matter what they´re sticking with Argentine coach Tolo Gallego but I´d love to see Diego coach los Tigres. Daniel Pasarella coached Monterrey to a title, mabye its Diego´s turn in Monterrey?

In other news Nigeria has been confirmed as Mexico´s opponent for a friendly on October 14. Here´s their schedule so far:

Mexico vs. Nigeria
October 14, 2007
Benito Juarez Stadium
Juarez, Chihuahua

Mexico vs. Guatemala
October 17, 2007
Los Angeles Coliseum
Los Angeles, California

Maradon must be on medication or on drugs for him to say that he wants to coach Mexico. He has not even coach a team yet, nor have he won a thing, so what makes him think that he can coach a National team. It just bother that he has to say that he wants to coach Mexico, why doesn’t he say instead that he should coach for Argentina or Peru?
