Chivas failed to hire Marcelo Bielsa and now they are looking at this coach who would replace Cadena

The board of directors of Chivas de Guadalajara wants a foreign coach for the next Apertura 2022 Liga MX Tournament and after unsuccessfully offering the position to the experienced Marcelo Bielsa, another Argentinean impressed Ricardo Peláez during the interviews he held to join Uruguayan Diego Aguirre among the main candidates to take the vacancy, which would not be extended for interim Ricardo Cadena, inexplicably.

Can Cruz Azul end Miguel Herrera's paternity over them in the Liguilla?

The main squad of the Rebaño Sagrado trained on Saturday at the facilities of the Verde Valle sports complex to complete preparations for their upcoming match against Atlas at the Jalisco Stadium, in the second leg of the Clásico Tapatío in the quarterfinals of the Clausura 2022 Grita México, which will define one of the semifinalists of this exciting Liguilla.

Ricardo Cadena took charge of Chivas after a turbulent departure of head coach Marcelo Michel Leaño, with a team lacking results and in 14th place in the standings, with no chance of advancing or reclassifying. 

The interim coach simply corrected small details and triggered the meteoric rise of the Rojiblancos by stringing together four victories that left them in sixth place and with a resounding 4-1 win over Pumas UNAM in the playoff to qualify for this stage.

Even Cadena's hot streaks won't keep him on the team

Cadena's five wins, a streak that came to an end after Thursday's 1-2 loss to Atlas at the Akron Stadium, seems to be of little use to the interim coach to keep him in charge for next season and the Guadalajara board is looking for a coach. 

First and timidly, he presented his intentions to veteran Marcelo Bielsa after his departure from English club Leeds United and they were rejected. Recently, a TUDN report revealed that Ricardo Peláez had interviewed five candidates for the position, although only the name of Uruguayan Diego Aguirre was known.

Who is the Argentine coach who impressed the Chivas board of directors?

The most recent report by Récord revealed the name of an Argentine strategist, who has impressed Chivas' sporting director and who has a line of work under Bielsa's ideology, with interesting projects with minor categories or youth academies.

According to information from the newspaper Olé, Sebastián Beccacece has dazzled the Rojiblanco high command and would join the candidacy of Uruguayan Diego Aguirre to take over the troubled Tapatío bench, despite the fact that the former assistant coach of the Argentina National Team at the Russia 2018 World Cup has also been offered to Cruz Azul and América.
