Argentine manager Ricardo 'El Turco' Mohamed is determined to win the only title missing from his Mexican football record while in charge of Toluca. A special analysis by Mediotiempo's Édgar Malagón details the manager's historic quest with the Red Devils. The team approaches this challenge in excellent form, sitting second in Liga MX with 13 points from six matches.
What title is Mohamed missing?
Ricardo Mohamed has won almost every trophy available in Mexico. Yet, one championship has eluded him throughout his successful career in the country. Lifting that trophy with Toluca would be the pinnacle of his time in the league. Édgar Malagón's analysis for Mediotiempo highlights this central motivation. Malagón said: "¡VA POR LA HISTORIA! El Turco Mohamed busca con Toluca el único título que le falta".
The 2026 season offers a promising scenario for this pursuit. Toluca starts from a position of strength, displaying potent and effective football. With 12 goals scored and only 4 conceded, the team boasts a +8 goal difference, the second-best in the competition. This defensive and offensive solidity is a fundamental pillar for the club's aspirations. Fans can track the squad's progress on our stats page.
