The well-known influencer and public figure Poncho de Nigris has generated a stir among Monterrey fans with a proposal that has ignited social media. Through his digital platforms, Poncho declared himself as the ideal candidate for the position of technical director of the Rayados, claiming it's time to give a Mexican a chance in that role.
"Hire me as DT of Rayados and I'll make them play better. Stop being malinchistas, we need a Mexican now," published Poncho de Nigris in a tweet, triggering an intense debate among the supporters of the Monterrey team. Additionally, he also proposed his brother, Aldo de Nigris, for the same position, mentioning that the de Nigris dynasty knows the club and its philosophy perfectly.
Poncho's proposal has been met with mixed opinions. While some support the idea arguing that it's time to give Mexican coaches a chance, others question Aldo de Nigris's lack of experience as a coach and the seriousness of the influencer's self-nomination. Despite Aldo's name not being as recognized in the coaching realm, his career as a footballer has left a mark on several teams and he is admired in Mexican football.
Amidst this controversy, Poncho de Nigris continues to spark conversations by insisting on his proposal and adding the possibility that his nephew could also debut on the team, generating even more reactions and divided opinions among Monterrey fans.
