3 unusual facts about Ricardo Ferretti


Ricardo Ferretti

In 2000 he moved to UANL Tigres, a team that constantly failed to qualify for the play-offs, despite having a squad with many star players, including many from the Mexican national team, such as Jorge Campos and Luis Hernández, and from other national teams as well.

However, in that season, Tigres signed Nery Pumpido as coach, but because of the similiraty in the style of play and the almost insignificant change to the squad's roster, local media in Monterrey always rumored that Ferretti coached Tigres behind Pumpido.

In 2004, due to personal differences with the player José Cardozo, and despite qualifying for the play-offs in all his seasons in Toluca, Ferretti was separated from the team.
