After a highly successful three-year tenure that yielded six titles, Brazilian coach André Jardine has departed Club América, leaving an indelible mark on Mexican football. His exit from the club does not signal an end to his elite coaching career; rather, it positions him as a sought-after strategist whose name is resonating strongly within the national football landscape.

In his farewell remarks, Jardine conveyed his deep gratitude and suggested that his future in Mexico is not entirely closed. "I have a very big bond with América, it was a professional life, and in the end, I see photos and memories; that will be forever. In the future, I cannot commit to anything, the coach's career is long, and it could be again in Mexico, maybe not now, but later it can be. I like the country, Liga MX, and there are several institutions that I consider great," he stated.

Jardine, who revealed he was once close to coaching the Mexican national team, also addressed the allure of potentially leading 'El Tri' in the future. This prospect appeals to him due to the profound affection he holds for Mexico. "The Mexican national team is an important one, it is a country that received me in the best possible way. I feel Mexican and I try to learn the anthem. A part of me will always be here. El Tricolor is a top priority, and from tomorrow, I can have other dreams," he concluded.
