Herrera led Mexico at the 2014 World Cup and Xolos to the top of the 2016 Apertura
Tijuana Xolos and former Mexico head coach, Miguel Herrera will be the guest Foreword writer for Prost Amerika’s inaugural Mexican Soccer Yearbook.
He will join Mexico Editor Jonny Rico, guest writers and the photographers of Prost Amerika to create the first English language Yearbook specifically written for Mexican-American soccer fans.
Herrera spoke about his participation:
“I’d like to thank Prost and Jonny Rico for this recognition and for thinking of me to help with an important project like this book. Writing the foreword of a book will be something new for me, but I am thankful and it will be an honor to contribute and participate with the book.
“We hope this will be a big hit for them.”
After safely shepherding Mexico through playoffs to the 2014 World Cup Finals, Miguel Herrera was offered the job on a permanent basis to lead El Tri in Brazil at the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Herrera’s side emerged from a tough group including Brazil and fought the hosts to a memorable 0-0 draw in the process before beating Croatia 3-1 to advance undefeated.
Mexico was finally eliminated from the World Cup in the Round of 16 stage by the Netherlands after a controversial penalty awarded for a foul on Arjen Robben.

Herrera went on to lead Mexico to the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup Title in the USA before an altercation with a journalist on the way home from Philadelphia cost him that job despite that success.
He took over at Liga MX side Tijuana Xolos that November, and he has guided the border club to the top of the current 2016 Apertura standings. Herrera is looking for his second title as a coach, having guided Club America to the Clausura in 2013.
He joins a prominent list of Prost Amerika Foreword writers.
Timber Jim Serrill wrote the Foreword to Cup Bound & Crowned, a book covering the Portland Timbers 2015 MLS cup win.
Earlier this month, it was announced that BBC Player of the Year, Arsenal FC’s Kim Little would pen the Foreword to 2016 — The Year in Women’s Soccer, which is already on Pre-Sale.
2016 – The Year in Mexican Soccer is scheduled to launch in early December 2016.
Actual launch date, book signing events, etc. will be announced on Prost Publishing Facebook page.
