Pumas fire Coach Andres Lillini

UNAM Pumas announced that they had parted ways with Coach Andres Lillini in a move that wasn’t surprising. Lillini had given Pumas some of the best moments in recent times, getting the team to a Liga MX and a CONCACAF Champions League Final, but the 2022 Apertura was a disastrous affair. Pumas ended the season in 16th place despite making some big signings in players like Dani Alves and Eduardo Salvio, thus having high expectations of competing for the title. No new coach has been named, and right now there are no clear candidates for the job either.
