Overview
- Necaxa dismissed Martín Varini after a 1-0 home loss to Puebla that provoked boos from fans and followed a run of poor results in the Apertura.
- The club confirmed Juan Reynoso as Varini’s replacement and presented him to the team, with reports saying he led his first training session on Monday, September 14.
- Media reports say Reynoso signed a contract running through December 2027, signaling the club wants a medium-term project rather than a stopgap fix.
- Necaxa sits in the lower half of the table with eight points from eight matches, and Reynoso’s first official game in charge is scheduled for September 19 at Atlético de San Luis.
- Reynoso arrives with key staff reported to include Pablo Zegarra, Enrique Meza Jr. and Mario Mendaña, and he brings Liga MX pedigree from his Cruz Azul title and earlier playing ties to Necaxa.
