coach

Gustavo Matosas is a Uruguayan football manager known for his tenure as head coach of various clubs and national teams, including the Costa Rican national team. In September 2019, he made headlines when he abruptly resigned from his position, stating that he found coaching a national team to be 'boring.' His departure was shrouded in controversy, as it was later revealed that he had been pursuing an opportunity with Atlético San Luis, with aspirations to eventually replace Diego Simeone at Atlético Madrid. Despite his ambitions, Matosas encountered difficulties, including allegations of financial misconduct during his time with León in Mexico, and ultimately did not achieve the success he sought in his coaching career.
