A week ago, we reported on 90min that Fernando Ortiz was on the tightrope in his position as coach of the Rayados de Monterrey. The club was clear that if the team failed in the Leagues Cup, the coach would be removed from his position at the head of the club and just as announced, just as what happened. Yesterday, the team from the north of the country announced the departure of the now ex-coach of the Monterrey team and the search for a replacement has begun.
The first candidate, who has already been completely ruled out, was the Spaniard Quique Sánchez Flores. According to AS México, the Monterrey sports department has been dreaming about the Spaniard’s arrival for years. At one point, he was positioned as a possible replacement for Antonio Mohamed and Javier Aguirre, a move that never came to fruition. Now, just before announcing the departure of the ‘tano’, the club contacted Sánchez Flores to offer him the position now that he is a free agent. However, he declined as he wants to take a break.
Sánchez Flores’ last challenge was to take over Sevilla, a grueling adventure due to the club’s complex current situation, and for the third time he refused to take over Monterrey, as he needs a break from the benches. Now, the management of the regio team will move around Argentina where they have different options on the table, from Sampaoli, Solari, Demichelis, Coudet and Larcamón himself, with whom there is still no direct communication.
