US (Washington Insider Magazine) —In the last year, the El Salvador soccer team has not achieved victories, so Fesfut is negotiating with Pérez to terminate the contract and go for a new strategist for the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
The Salvadoran Football Federation (Fesfut) announced this Monday its intention to terminate the contract with technical director Hugo Pérez due to the lack of positive results on the bench.
According to information from Fesfut, in just over a year the El Salvador team has only accumulated negative results to its credit, so it expects Pérez to leave sooner rather than later.

In addition to the possible dismissal of Pérez Fesfut also indicated his desire to find an appropriate replacement that is available for both the Concacaf Nations League and the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
The decision to leave Pérez as coach of El Salvador is mainly due to the low number of victories during his cycle, the last match that uncovered his dismissal being the 2-3 defeat against Trinidad and Tobago in League A of Concacaf in the Nations League.
The team’s last victory dates back to June 2022 (more than a year ago) and along the way it has suffered defeats against direct rivals such as Guatemala, Martinique and Nicaragua.
In total there have been more than 40 games for Pérez on the bench, with nine wins, 12 draws and 22 losses during two Gold Cups, the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers and friendly matches.
If there is an agreement between Fesfut and Pérez, it is expected that the new strategist will make his debut in the October matches against Martinique, where it will be known if El Salvador is relegated from League A or achieves its permanence in the League of Nations.
