Historically, Mexico has been a country that has exported very few representatives of football, as both players, but especially coaches, have chosen to stay in the comfort of a nation where salaries are good and demands are often few.
It might be thought that Javier Aguirre is the only case of a Mexican coach abroad in recent decades; however, there is also the case of David de la Torre, who for more than a decade has been coaching in Bolivian football until Royal Pari fired him due to recent results in the league.
David, a member of the famous De la Torre dynasty in Mexican football, has Ricardo La Volpe as his great master, whom he met during his time at Atlas in the late 90s.
After his short playing career, the nephew of Chepo and Yayo de la Torre coached the U15 and U20 teams of the Zorros, the latter at the express request of Bigoton, who at that time was coaching the first team of Rojinegro.
However, just a few years later, he decided to accept a risky proposal made by the historic Marco Antonio Etcheverry to work with the minor divisions of the Bolivian Federation, a project that would soon open the doors for him to coach a professional team for the first time.
Mamoré, Universitario de Sucre, Sport Boys, Real América, Guabirá, assistant of the Bolivian U20 National Team, Real Potosí, and the mentioned Pari are the teams of this young strategist who decided to bet on an unknown soccer to make his own history and not to stay in the shadow of his famous uncles.
