Alexander Medina has gone through his second cycle in Talleres. “El Cacique” was launched early yesterday at CARD and was introduced to senior staff by President Andrés Fassi, members of the Board of Directors (Vice Presidents Guillermo Carena and Rodrigo Escribano, etc.) and collaborators from the operating department.

In addition to the institutional coaching staff composed of goalkeeper coaches Gustavo Irusta and Professor Martín Audano, the “Chief” is also led by his usual backup coach Fernando Machado. Fernando Machado, the new coach will be Román Cuello and Bruno Militano, a fitness coach from Italy.

After the first training session, Medina entered the press room for next Saturday’s Argentine Cup round of 16 match against Boca in Mendoza at 8 p.m.

“For me, I’m very happy to be back at the club. I’m excited, excited. I only have 10 days to appreciate this property and the infrastructure that Talleres has today. Andres told me It was brought up that my return would be to pursue more and that idea appealed to me. It’s a good team and we had a lot of discussions with Andres about it, although we won’t have players missing due to the qualifying dates. But I already think about 90% of the team that will play against Boca on Saturday”, were the first words of Walter Ribonetto’s successor.

Medina spoke after the first training session and looked ahead to the game against Boca. At the meeting, the club’s Director of Institutional Relations Miguel Cavatorta and Press Officer José Sanguedolce presented the coach’s situation, Because President Andrés Fassi is intensifying negotiations to end one of the reinforcements requested by the “chief”.

“Chief? Sometimes, Indian”

-Are you more Indian than “Chief” when you come back?

-Sometimes you have to be more Indian inside than “Chief”. That means adding more work, more people, and working with values. Indians make you work hard every day and be the first worker on the team. This is where we are now. No magic wand. There’s no secret to it: you have to work and put in the time. We still have a few days to assemble the team to face Boca, but together with my coaching staff we believe that we can face this challenge and have a chance of success, because we know that we are facing a great opponent. I came back because I was where I wanted to be and my feelings for Talleres and the people were very strong. I feel very comfortable when I’m in the club. Arrival was due to a call from Andrés.

– What pending items do you have from the last cycle?

-Judging from my previous steps, I have a pending final against Boca in the 2021 Argentine Cup. It was the same with River Plate in the league, but for different reasons we didn’t make it to the end. That’s why I’m here today: we want to achieve something important. But, to do that, you have to work hard. The team has a good foundation and from here we are excited to achieve some results with Talleres. Is it easy to get? No, but it’s a dream for all of us. If we have come so close to this achievement on other occasions, why not be excited that we can make history at the club? Now it’s my turn to put together the best team in just five days to face them again. We will try to implement a good game plan. Now I have to talk to every player and see how they are doing not only football-wise but also personally.

reinforcements and casualties

“We have assessed the squad and have enough tools to do a good job. We are very excited about the period that is about to begin. I hope we can do something important for the club. We are looking at options to strengthen. I will not disclose Name. There’s a good foundation, but we’re constantly evaluating,” the chief said.

In that sense, Fassi was responsible for the hiring of Newell’s winger Francisco Gonzalez. There is still time until Friday, when local passes close for the day.

As for casualties, Juan Rodriguez is unable to play against Boca. Against “el Pincha”, Lucas Suárez completed the exit in the last half hour, which would be Edina’s seventh defeat at the start of the second cycle in Talleres. It can be seen that there will be immediate replacements in the backline, as Matias Catalan will also be absent due to the impact of Chile.

Bras Riveros from Paraguay, Juan Camilo Portilla from Colombia, Matias Catalan and Bruno Batigiotto from Chile and Miguel Navarro from Venezuela are the Talleres players who have so far been called up by their respective teams to participate in the 2024 World Cup double FIFA qualifiers.
