Ángel Villacampa confirms he will remain as América head coach
Spanish manager Ángel Villacampa has dismissed exit rumors, reaffirming his commitment to Club América ahead of the Apertura 2026 season.
Club América Femenil manager Ángel Villacampa has officially confirmed he will continue his tenure with the Mexican side. This decision provides stability for the club ahead of the Apertura 2026, effectively ending speculation that arose following the team's historic double-winning campaign last year.
After securing the Liga MX title and the Concacaf W Champions Cup, the Spanish coach became a prime target for several top-tier European clubs. Reports linked him to high-profile interest from Atlético de Madrid, Juventus, and Olympique de Marseille.
"My priority — until I leave here — will always be Club América, but it is obvious that when you are at such an important club, you cannot control the interest of others. Atlético, Juventus, Marseille; those are clubs that have shown interest, but this crest and this team have always been my first priority." Ángel Villacampa
Villacampa emphasized that despite the prestige of the European offers, the bond he has formed with the fans and the board made his choice clear. His commitment ensures that América retains the leadership behind their recent success, as they look to remain the team to beat in the upcoming tournament.
