Valencia CF has appointed Javier Aguirre as their new head coach, signing him until the end of the current season with an option for an additional year. This move comes ten days after the club dismissed Carlos Corberan, as Valencia currently sits 19th in La Liga with a disappointing record of one win, one draw, and five defeats. Aguirre, a Mexican coach born on December 1, 1958, brings a wealth of experience to the struggling Spanish side. He previously managed the Mexico national team in the FIFA World Cup in 2002, 2010, and 2016, reaching the round of 16 in the latter. His extensive club career includes stints with La Liga teams such as CA Osasuna, Atlético de Madrid, Real Zaragoza, RCD Espanyol, CD Leganés, and RCD Mallorca. Notably, Aguirre successfully guided CA Osasuna to qualification for the UEFA Champions League.
