The leadership of Colón de Santa Fe decided to fire the Uruguayan Marcelo Saralegui as technical director, after a bad start in the Professional Football League (LPF), with three defeats and the tie on Sunday against Unión in the classic. Néstor “Pipo” Gorosito is mentioned as successor who is one of the coaches who has always been on President José Vignatti’s radar.
“I have stopped being the coach of Colón. I spoke with the directors and we agreed. There are many grievances to the board of directors and they have to channel it somewhere,” Saralegui expressed to DSports Radio. The Uruguayan coach the first to leave his position so far in the current championship, He said that there was a meeting with the leaders, who told him “that they had the decision made“so that it does not continue.
“There was a home game (on Sunday, against Huracán) and I wanted to play it. When it hits the post and goes outside they throw you out, when it goes inside, you continue,” added Saralegui, who at the press conference after the draw with Unión had affirmed that he had more than enough strength to continue.
Saralegui will appear this Tuesday at the property on June 4 to say goodbye to the campus. If there is no agreement with a new coaching staff, the practice would be commanded by Adrian Marini, Reserve Division coach, who could even lead the team next Sunday against Huracán.
