Alfonso Díaz, Business Director of Spanish Mallorcastated this Wednesday that the club has not maintained for now negotiations with Javier Aguirre for the renewal of the Mexican coach’s contract, which expires on June 30.
“We are focused on the League. Aguirre has already said it too. There are seven very important games left to achieve the main objective, which is permanence in the First Division“said Díaz in the presentation of an agreement to convert Son Moix into the first stadium with a ‘zero waste’ certificate in Spanish football.
Aguirre has reiterated in his last appearances before journalists that He feels “very comfortable” on the island and that Mallorca is his “first option”despite the fact that his representative has already informed him that he has “offers from other clubs.”
The coach took charge of the Balearic team in March 2022, with the team in the relegation zone.
The one from Mexico City managed to right the course, achieved permanence after a dramatic final sprint and last season he ranked the club in the top ten (he was ninth) in a very loose way.
This season the vermillions are suffering more in the League, although they had a brilliant Copa del Rey by proclaiming themselves runner-up after losing to Athletic Club de Bilbao in the penalty shootout.
On the thirty-first day of the championship, Mallorca is in fifteenth place with 31 points6 above Cádiz, which marks the border of relegation.
The vermilion team has two consecutive trips to Seville and Cádiz before receiving Atlético de Madrid.
Mallorca has played 78 matches in the First Division with Javier Aguirre on the bench, of which they have won 24, drawn 22 and lost 32.
The team has gone 80 games without jeopardizing its continuity in the highest category of Spanish football with the Mexican coach and, until now, He still hasn’t had three consecutive defeats.
