Andre Jardine, the coach of América in Mexico, expressed this Saturday that he feels a step behind top coaches like Pep Guardiola in the race to coach Brazil following Dorival Júnior's departure. Jardine, who won the Olympic gold medal with Brazil in the Tokyo Olympics, acknowledged that Brazil is looking for a coach of "higher level" and that his name is not yet at the level of the great international coaches.

An Unfinished Dream

Despite his recognition, Jardine made it clear that coaching Brazil is a dream he hopes to fulfill in the future. "I know that one day I might be worthy of that seat in Brazil, which is very hot, but right now Brazil is thinking about bringing in a world-class coach," said the manager, who is currently enjoying his time in Mexico coaching América..

Commitment to Las Águilas

When asked if he would leave América to take over the Brazilian national team, Jardine reiterated his commitment to the Mexican club. "I feel happy and fulfilled in this league. That’s very important for a coach; respect above all," emphasized the coach, who has been well received by both the fans and the media.

With the win, América reached 30 points in the standings, with nine victories, three draws, and one loss. In the next round, the team will visit Pachuca on Saturday, looking to further consolidate their lead.
