Diego Cocca named new Xolos manager

Club Tijuana announced the signing of 45 year old Diego Cocca as the club’s thirteenth manager. Cocca fills the void left when Eduardo Coudet left 37 days ago, reportedly due to players not being paid wages.

Cocca comes to Tijuana with ten years’ managerial experience under his belt. He won promotion to the Argentine Primera División with Defensa y Justicia in 2013-14 and won the league the following year with Racing Club. He’s managed teams in the Copa Libertadores and has also coached in Mexico, with a stint at Santos Laguna in 2011.
