2 Mexican clubs make Filipe Luís an offer, ex-Flamengo responds | OneFootball

Coach Filipe Luís, currently without a club, is even on the radar of Mexican teams. That is because Club América and Monterrey (MEX) made offers for the coach, who was dismissed by Flamengo in early March.

However, the former full-back turned them down on the grounds that both clubs already have their respective managers. In addition, the former Flamengo man has never hidden his desire to coach a team in Europe. The information comes from Spain’s Diario Marca.

Does Filipe Luís disapprove of what Flamengo did?

The Most Beloved was unhappy with the start of 2026. So, the Rubro-Negro decided to change coaches, but before parting ways with Filipe Luís, Fla had already reached an agreement with Leonardo Jardim in order to dismiss the previous manager.

Therefore, by turning down two teams because both already have coaches, it is possible to say that the Brazilian does not agree with that hiring model. Mengo dismissed the club idol after a year and a half, despite seven titles won.

Who are the coaches of the Mexican teams?

Brazilian André Jardine’s América side sits in 8th place, with 17 points from 12 matches played. Monterrey, meanwhile, dismissed former Flamengo man Domènec Torrent in February this year and is currently led by Nicolás Sánchez on an interim basis, in 9th place with 14 points.

How is Flamengo doing without Filipe Luís?

While Filipe Luís looks for an opportunity, Mengão under Leonardo Jardim remains unbeaten. That is because Fla has had just one draw in five matches, scoring nine goals under the Portuguese coach.
