Antonio Mohamed and the Toluca Red Devils continue to share a compelling love story that shows no signs of ending soon. The renowned ‘Turco’ has once again led his team to glory in Mexican football, securing the eleven and twelfth stars for the club. Despite claiming five titles during his tenure as Toluca’s coach, there remains one elusive trophy he aims to conquer next year: the CONCACAF Champions League.
In an exclusive interview with journalist David Medrano from TV Azteca Deportes, Mohamed expressed his contentment regarding his future as the Toluca coach. He stated, “I’m totally happy; everything went as planned. I’m very pleased. They have hierarchy, they have depth, and a great squad. But I believe we are rightful winners. It starts with the board, then we have a fantastic roster, and everything is worked out calmly. We were able to do our part. Now, we’re going for the Concachampions.”
This tournament has been a missing piece in Mohamed’s illustrious career. His record in Mexican football is commendable, with five Liga MX titles acquired through his coaching spells at Xolos de Tijuana, Monterrey, Club América, and two with Toluca, along with two Copa MX titles and one Campeón de Campeones.
Now, as the reigning champions of Mexican football, Mohamed and his players enter the CONCACAF Champions League as formidable contenders, aiming not only for the international title but also for a chance to qualify for the Interamerican Cup in 2025. The anticipation surrounding this opportunity highlights the ambition and talent within the Toluca squad, promising an exciting chapter ahead in their journey.
