Efraín Juárez could be on his way out of Pumas just days after the crushing 2–1 aggregate Clausura final defeat to Cruz Azul. The loss, sealed by Carlos Rotondi's 90th-minute strike and compounded by Uriel Antuna's stoppage-time red card, has piled pressure on a manager already facing scrutiny over his post-match conduct, which prompted Cruz Azul to file an official complaint with the FMF. Juárez's agent has publicly denied links to European clubs, but reports now suggest internal reasons within the club are pushing him toward the exit. The potential departure would leave the league's top regular-season side searching for a new manager as the 15-year trophy drought drags on.
