MEXICO CITY: Former Mexico and Barcelona defender Rafael Marquez was named the country’s new head coach on Wednesday after Javier Aguirre stepped down following the co-host’s elimination from the World Cup.
Mexico were beaten 3-2 by England in the last 16 in an epic game at the Estadio Azteca on Sunday.
Marquez, who made 147 appearances for his country, will have the task of ensuring the “continuity of the project” started by 67-year-old Aguirre, the Mexican football federation said.
The 47-year-old former central defender gained coaching experience by taking charge of Barcelona’s reserve team before joining Aguirre’s national coaching staff in 2024.
