Mexico interim manager Ricardo "Tuca" Ferretti has said during the past several weeks that he doesn't want to take over the Mexico national team job full-time. Monday, ahead of a friendly against the United States, he made clear he has even less interest in taking over the U.S. job.
This summer, the coach signed a three-year contract extension with Tigres. His desire to stay loyal to the northern Mexico club has been the driving factor behind the manager not signing up as Juan Carlos Osorio's replacement. There would be an even bigger barrier were the USMNT to seek out Ferretti's assistance.
