Querétaro Parts Ways With Coach Benjamín Mora, Sets Dec. 1 Target for Successor

Club leaders cast the change as a pivot to a development-first project anchored in competitiveness and community.

Overview

  • Sporting president Álvaro de la Torre announced on Nov. 14 that the club and Mora mutually agreed not to renew his contract.
  • Mora’s tenure covered 34 matches with a record of 11 wins, 4 draws and 19 losses, finishing 12th with 20 points in both 2025 tournaments and exiting the Leagues Cup in the group stage.
  • The squad reports for preseason on Dec. 1, and the board expects to have a new head coach and staff in place by that date.
  • Querétaro outlined three pillars for its next phase—competitiveness, talent formation and community engagement—and reaffirmed Fernando Samayoa’s continuity with the women’s team.
  • Reporting indicates preliminary contact with Atlético Ottawa coach Diego Mejía as a possible candidate, a development the club has not confirmed.
