Maradona names his candidates for manager of the Mexico National Team

Diego Armando Maradona’s passage through Mexico has been eventful, to say the least. On Saturday, with the international break at full swing, his team Dorados de Sinaloa and their parent club, Xolos de Tijuana, decided to play a friendly at the Estadio Caliente. Prior to the start of the game, his club decided to take the unprecedented step to allow him to speak to the FOX Deportes crew about a number of subjects.

As you might imagine, Maradona had a lot to say, including taking widely reported shots at Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi. Among the topics was the coaching vacancy to the Mexico National Team.
