Renato Paiva aims to revitalize Santos Laguna in Mexico

Portuguese manager Renato Paiva is working to revitalize Santos Laguna in the Mexican Liga MX. After a difficult start to the Torneio de Abertura, which saw the team sitting in the lower rankings, the 56-year-old coach has secured three consecutive victories against Juárez, Toluca, and Pachuca.

Paiva noted that the team faced a challenging initial schedule against several of the league's strongest sides. His primary objective is to return the historic club to the championship playoffs, a feat they have not achieved in three years. He emphasized that the project focuses on implementing a competitive playing model and reconnecting the team with its supporters.
