Liga MX: the alarms go off for Solari and America
Led by Solari, the Coapa team lost the final of the Concacaf Champions League last October.
The crisis of results increased this year with just one win, three draws, four losses and six points that have him in penultimate place in the Clausura.
"Club América appreciates the professionalism and seriousness of Santiago Solari, Santiago Sánchez, Lucas Nardi and Bruno Miltan for just over a year of work in our team."
On the next date, America will visit Monterrey, which also fired coach Javier Aguirre for poor results.
