Universitario Backs Fossati’s Continuity as Reports Link Coach to Necaxa and Pumas

A pending meeting will address his status under a one-year contract that includes an exit clause.

Overview

  • Administrator Franco Velazco publicly denied any rift with Jorge Fossati and called the rumors unfounded.
  • RPP reports the coach has one year left on his deal, which contains an exit clause, so his stay is not guaranteed by contract alone.
  • According to RPP, Fossati is waiting for a sit-down with club leadership to evaluate foreign proposals and seek improved pay for his staff.
  • Mexican and local reporters have linked Fossati to Necaxa and Pumas for 2026, though the club has not confirmed any talks.
  • Universitario says it aims to keep Fossati and is planning for 2026 but would not obstruct a move abroad if he chooses to leave.
