Cruz Azul won his ninth star under the direction of Juan Reynoso in May 2021, the Peruvian coach returned joy to the cement fans for having broken the title drought that was chasing the club. But his term could end and he would be close to leaving the bench of La Noria. At the end of the 2022 Closing, the Machine will define whether it will continue with Reynoso or if someone else will arrive to lead the team.

This was reported by León Lancada for ESPN. According to the sports journalist, there would be certain conditions for the board of directors to give continuity to Juan Reynoso's project and the main one would focus on obtaining the tenth club title, otherwise someone else would be contemplated.

Within the ambitious plans of La Noria, after having won its ninth championship title, it was considered that the squad was ready to repeat the feat and become two-time champion in the 2021 Apertura, but when it did not succeed the idea extended until the 2022 Clausura.

A few days after the tournament league is defined, the continuity of the Peruvian would be in doubt because so far his team is in the repechage zone, so he is not yet assured of his passage to the “Mexican football party”. According to ESPN, the board considered that Juan Reynoso will remain in his position only if he wins in the current tournament, however, different options for the celestial bench would already be analyzed.

Although the prospects of the cement directive were not announced, there would be a second plan as soon as Juan Reynoso's term of office with Cruz Azul ends.

So far the club or the coach himself have not shared his position on this matter, but the rumors of the chess player's departure from the Machine are not new.
