Inter Miami is in search of a new head coach following the surprising departure of Javier Mascherano, who left his position this week. Currently, Guillermo Hoyos is serving as the interim coach for the team, which features Lionel Messi as its star player.
According to Argentine media, two names are emerging as possible replacements. The first is Spanish coach Xavi Hernández, a former teammate of Messi at Barcelona. Since leaving the Catalan club in May 2024, Hernández has not managed any team, but his career includes titles such as the Supercopa de España and LaLiga.
The other candidate is Marcelo Gallardo, who stepped down from his role at River Plate in February of this year. Despite the negative results that led to his departure, ‘El Muñeco’ left with honors, having won two Copa Libertadores and other significant trophies. His experience in management at Nacional in Uruguay and Al Ittihad in Saudi Arabia enhances his profile.
The decision regarding Inter Miami’s new coach is imminent, and the club’s future could take a new direction with either of these two renowned strategists. For more details on the impact of changes in other areas, check the news about the seizure of electoral materials in Surquillo.
