Ricardo ‘Tuca’ Ferretti would become a trend this Friday on social networks after a call to the Mexican journalist Álvaro Morales in which he stated that Miguel ‘Piojo’ Herrera will not be chosen by the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) to lead the selectionall this without realizing that he was live.
The former UANL Tigres coach was unaware that Morales was on the air at that time and had an unfiltered conversation in which he explained the reasons why, in his opinion, “Piojo” will not return to the technical direction of the Tri.
“There is a candidate for the national team commission and after the owners’ meeting. The national team commission is going to propose two or three types at the meeting, as it should be. They have to be two or three. Then the owners committee has the right to propose someone else or say that we have those three, but there is no candidate, because the selection committee is on standby. Now I’ll tell you one, the louse will not be, it will not be. Not only from Aztecs, who just said it. Not only for that issue, ”he indicated.
This extensive explanation was heard by the viewers as Morales brought the cell phone close to the microphone on the lapel of his jacket. “Álvaro, are you on television?” Ferretti asked.
“Yes, teacher, you marked me on the air, I was with the Chivas report,” Morales said. “I thought it was yesterday’s program,” DT clarified with a laugh. Once informed of the situation, the 68-year-old strategist stayed up talking live with the panelists about the appointment of a new coach for Mexico.
“Tuca” thought that Herrera was a great coach, but he opted for the current one from Pachuca, Guillermo Almada. “I think he is a great boy, a great coach, but there are things that make it impossible, but speaking personally is very difficult. Almada is a great coach, the Mexican soccer champion. To say that I don’t like it would be lying, the work with Santos and Pachuca are exceptional”, he commented.
In the last few hours it emerged that the owner of Club América, Emilio Azcárraga, would be one of the interested parties within the Liga MX owners commission for Miguel Herrera to reach El Tri.
