“I don’t need you to tell me if I continue or not, I have a contract until 2026 and we are talking now and planning what’s next. First I have to think about who is going to leave, many things we have to land, unfortunately for the project we have we were left out“But we will have time,” said the strategist at a time when the version has emerged that the Xolos board is looking for the Argentine Nicolás Larcamón to make a change in the direction of the border team.

“It has been a tournament of ups and downs, as I said many times, the team plays well, there are good things for lapses, but with specific errors that did not let us get off the ground. I didn’t celebrate, the truth is that after so many bad circumstances, we had to give them a victory. It is in our hands not to pay the last fine,” he highlighted.
