Paulo Bracks unveils Atlético’s new boss, first training date set | OneFootball

After the 1-1 draw between Atlético and América on Sunday night (22), at the MRV Arena, the club's CSO, Paulo Bracks, confirmed that the club has already hired a new coach.

Without mentioning the professional by name, Bracks made it clear that the decision is already finalized and that the official announcement depends only on bureaucratic procedures involving the current club of the coach.

Domínguez is the chosen one

As previously reported by the portal Deus Me Dibre, the Argentine Eduardo Domínguez will be the new coach of Atlético. He was in charge of Estudiantes de La Plata and arrives to replace Jorge Sampaoli, who was dismissed on the 12th.

Domínguez will sign a contract with Galo until the end of 2027.

Transition in command

While the new coach does not officially take over, the team remains under the command of interim Lucas Gonçalves, a permanent assistant at the club. He will be responsible for leading the team next Wednesday (25), when Atlético faces Grêmio in Porto Alegre, at 9:30 PM, for the 4th round of the Brazilian Championship Série A.

The expectation is that Domínguez will already be in the capital of Rio Grande do Sul to watch the match alongside the delegation and begin practical work on Thursday (26), marking the start of a new era in the technical command of the alvinegro club.
