Jaime Lozano or Efraín Juárez, this is the date on which the new Pumas coach would debut
Gustavo Lema's departure from Pumas in the early hours of Wednesday left the team's board of directors empty, which is why two candidates are emerging as the favorites for the position: Jaime Lozano and Efraín Juárez.
According to recent information shared by journalist César Luis Merlo, who had access to sources close to the Pumas leadership, the decision is between these two coaches, who share a past as players for Club Universidad Nacional. This fact is relevant for the institution, which is allegedly looking for a Mexican coach with this track record.
Stay informed: Gustavo Lema is dismissed as coach of PumasOn the one hand, Lozano, in addition to having been a Pumas player during his years as a footballer, has gained experience having played for Necaxa and having served as technical director of the Mexican Senior National Team.
On the other hand, Juárez led Atlético Nacional to position itself as champion of the League and Cup in Colombia.
