Ricardo Ferretti

Ricardo Ferretti de Oliveira (born 22 February 1954), also known as Tuca, is a Brazilian-Mexican professional football manager and former player who currently works for ESPN Deportes and ESPN Mexico as an analyst.

As a player, Ferretti was an attacking midfielder renowned for his free-kick expertise, mobility, powerful right foot, and natural leadership. He spent the bulk of his career with Universidad Nacional, where he stands as the club's second all-time leading scorer. Before making Mexico his home, he turned out for Botafogo, Vasco da Gama, and Bonsucesso in Brazil, and went on to represent Atlas, Neza, Monterrey, and Toluca on the Mexican side of his career.

As a manager, Ferretti led several prominent Mexican clubs, including Universidad Nacional, Guadalajara, Toluca and Cruz Azul. His most enduring and influential spell came with Tigres UANL, where he served for eleven years and guided them to five league championships. In addition to his club career, he was appointed interim head coach of the Mexico national team on three occasions, overseeing a total of eleven matches.

Ferretti holds the national record for the most league matches managed, and alongside Ignacio Trelles, shares the distinction of being the most decorated manager in Mexican football history by league titles.
