André Jardine became the winningest coach in Club América history after just a year and a half with the team, achieving countless historic records.

But unfortunately, he has not been able to maintain that winning momentum, and both in 2025 and in what we have seen so far in 2026, he has not managed to win titles, while the team’s level remains below expectations.

Given this situation, there has been a lot of speculation about whether this semester is his last chance, as some media outlets have highlighted that if he does not win a trophy, he would be leaving Club América.

Santiago Baños spoke about this topic.

The sporting president made a small ‘media tour,’ speaking with TUDN and Claro Sports, where he was asked about the Brazilian coach’s continuity.

“Now that we’re near the bottom of the table, he is under a different kind of pressure, knowing that we’re in both tournaments, but I see him well, I see him calm, working as always. The truth is, there are no complaints there, no doubts at all. They are committed, professional people, spending hours and hours working even after the players have already left.

If he is still here, it is because we trust him, because the owner trusts him, the board, the sporting side, and everyone else as well,” were the words of the sporting president.

It is clear that the intention is for André to remain at América for a long time, and although he admitted that he is safe for now, he also made it clear that results are what matter at this club.
