He's a fan of Lionel Messi, now he could be the new coach of Mexico

After the World Cup in Qatar, the Mexican team is looking for a new manager after the failure in the Middle East, where they couldn't even get past the group stage. Now, he takes the name of a strategist who admires Lionel Messi, made Lautaro Martínez debut and could be the replacement for Gerardo Martino.

This is Diego Cocca. The Argentine, who made his professional debut as a player at River Plate, where he even won a title, is the number one candidate to take the reins of El Tri, who had a hard time in Qatar, where he failed to advance to the round of 16 and the 'Tata ' Martino stepped aside amid criticism from the press and fans.

Cocca is a great admirer of Lionel Messi and this has been demonstrated on his Twitter account, where he could not stand the urge to surrender at Leo's feet in the past.

Cocca and the trust he had in Lautaro Martínez:

Diego Cocca led Racing Club in two different stages. In one of them he coincided with Lautaro Martínez and did not hesitate to give him minutes at the 'Academy'. Some time ago, he said that given the tight schedule and with Diego Milito in his last years, he decided on "Toro", who did not last long in the Professional League and now shines with the Inter Milan shirt.
