Marcelo Saralegui’s tenure as Colón’s manager lasted just ten games. This Monday, after the draw in the classic against Union which seemed to be a positive sign after three defeats, the Board informed him of his departure and the Uruguayan did not keep silent: he spoke of “decision made” previously and referred specifically to the attacker’s physique Ramon ‘Wanchope’ Abila.

“This year’s campaign is lean, it wasn’t like the previous one. For the leaders, it’s to decompress the situation a bit. I had a lot of strength, I think I could have controlled it. It was a very nice experience”recognized Saralegui, who a few hours earlier felt like “Tarzan”, as he had confessed in the press conference after the draw against ‘Tatengue’ at the ’15 de Abril’ stadium.

But the DT, who had time as a player for ‘Sabalero’, left some wiggle room against the management. For example, it turned out that the president Jose Vignatti He was in Buenos Aires over the weekend and would have held meetings with various coaches, given the possible exemption of DT to date. Néstor Gorosito, Sebastián Battaglia and the duo Favio Orsi and Sergio Gómezwould be the main options.

“They called us some time ago, I met the leaders and they had decided not to continue. A home game was coming up and I wanted to play it. When he hits the post and goes wide, they kick you out, when he comes in, you continue”launched in statements to different media.

And, when asked about a particular case, he spoke about striker Ramón ‘Wanchope’ Ábila: “He’s a very important player, perhaps he’s not at his best physical level. He had an excess of holidays agreed with the leaders. We thought he would arrive in a different way. It was at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, but these are things that have already happened. He tried in every way to heal. It will pay off in the next few games”.

Saralegui took charge in September and, in his ten games, he has won three, drawn two and lost the remaining five, three of which were in the current Professional League. Next Sunday, at 17:00, he will receive the undefeated Hurricane in the ‘Cemetery of the Elephants’ in Santa Fe.
