América Femenil announces Luis Fuentes as new sports director
It seems that in Coapa they are not satisfied with just winning; They need to do it with style and a complete restructuring. Just when you thought that América Femenil would stay calm after their two-time championship, they drop the bomb: Luis Fuentes, the former winger that we all remember from his time on the field, is back. But be careful, it is not to put on the heels, but to wear a suit (or, let’s be honest, a casual but elegant t-shirt) and assume the role of new sports director.
Your mission? Nothing less than “strengthening the structures” of the women’s team. It sounds like corporate jargon, we know, but deep down it is about building a project that not only dominates in Mexico, but also causes war internationally. Basically, they want América Femenil to be the protagonist of all the games, memes and headlines… and, incidentally, to win trophies.
A return with a taste of nostalgia (and ambition)
Fuentes is not just any newcomer. He is a former Águilas player who left just after the 2023-24 two-time championship, so his return has that touch of “coming home” but with a power that it did not have before. According to the official statement – which, by the way, is so well written that it is even envious –, their experience, professionalism and commitment will be key to promoting the project.
Millennial translation: comes to bring order, to sign talent and to make sure that everything works like a Swiss watch… or at least, like an app that doesn’t crash. His arrival is no coincidence; It is part of a broader restructuring that the club recently announced. In other words, it’s not a whim, it’s a strategy.
And what happens with Claudia Carrión?
This is where the plot gets interesting. With the arrival of Fuentes, Claudia Carrión, who was previously the sports director, is not leaving… but changing roles! Now she will take over as corporate director, focusing on increasing the international penetration of América Femenil. Basically, he will dedicate himself to making the world talk about the Eagles as much as we talk about the Netflix series.
According to the club, Carrión had a successful sports management, so it is not a “replacement”, but rather a redistribution of talent. She will continue to contribute her knowledge, but now in a more global scope. Or, as we would say in colloquial language: he moved departments, but he is still in the same company.
This movement reflects an increasingly common trend in sport: reorganizing management teams to maximize impact. It’s not just about winning games; also about building a brand, generating engagement and, of course, selling merchandising. In the end, football is also a business, and América knows this better than anyone.
With Fuentes in sports management and Carrión in internationalization, América Femenil seems to be covering all the bases. They want to be unbeatable on and off the field. And honestly, if anyone can do it, it’s them. Of course, the pressure is on. Now it’s time to wait for results… and, at the same time, see how the fans and the press react.
