Reports Link Necaxa to Universitario Coach Jorge Fossati as Pumas Evaluate Option

Bound by a 2026 Universitario contract, any departure would hinge on negotiations.

Overview

  • Mexican journalist Gerardo González reported that Fossati is a leading candidate to replace Fernando Gago at Necaxa.
  • Necaxa created a vacancy by dismissing Gago after a disappointing Apertura campaign.
  • Pumas are considering Fossati only if Efraín Juárez’s project falters, according to the same report.
  • Fossati remains contracted to Universitario through 2026, so an early exit would require an agreement between the parties.
  • Fossati said he has not decided to leave and will discuss his future with club leadership, as Universitario signals it intends to retain him.
