  • Stadium: Estadio Cuauhtémoc (capacity roughly 51,000)
  • Colours / nickname: White and blue; nickname "La Franja" (the stripe)

Juan Reynoso — brief coach profile (relevant to 2020/21)

  • Peruvian former professional player turned coach.
  • Was head coach of Puebla during 2019–2020 and remained in charge through the 2020 Apertura (branded Guardianes 2020).
  • In December 2020 he left Puebla to take the head-coach position at Cruz Azul, so he was not Puebla’s coach throughout the full 2020/21 cycle.

Style, role and impact at Puebla

  • Reynoso is generally known for organizing defensively solid teams with emphasis on structure, quick transitions and effective set-piece work.
  • At Puebla he helped stabilize results and improve competitiveness — keeping the club in contention for the league’s playoff places (Liguilla) at times, while developing a compact, hard-to-break-down unit.
  • His work at Puebla raised his profile in Liga MX and led to the Cruz Azul appointment at the end of 2020.

2020/21 context (how the season cycle affected Puebla)

  • The Mexican season around that period was split into two short tournaments (Apertura 2020, called Guardianes 2020, and Clausura 2021, called Guardianes 2021)
  • Reynoso coached Puebla through the Guardianes 2020 (Apertura) phase and departed in December 2020 before the Guardianes 2021 (Clausura) kicked in.
  • After his departure the club appointed a new head coach to lead Puebla into the Clausura portion of the campaign.

Squad and players (general)

  • During Reynoso’s tenure Puebla’s roster combined experienced domestic Liga MX players and several regular starters who fit his structured system.
