Ramón Díaz backs Coudet at River: He’ll bring results, all the best | OneFootball

El Pelado, who was not considered by the management to replace Gallardo despite the requests of some fans, spoke for the first time about Chacho’s appointment in Núñez and had no doubt that he has the necessary qualities to steer the ship back on course.

While River is going through the beginning of a new era with Eduardo Coudet at the helm, an authoritative voice from the world of the Millonario commented on the change in direction: Ramón Díaz broke his silence and dedicated positive words to the brand new coach. According to El Pelado, with his experience at the club—which he has already managed on three occasions and knows like the back of his hand—Chacho has the tools and the personality needed to right the ship.

The legendary coach, who was not considered among the candidates despite the requests from a section of the fans and being without a club after his departure from Internacional, chose to send a message of support to the team’s new leader. “Chacho is a friend, he will surely give the club a solid style of play and very important results, I wish him all the best”, he said in an interview with Radio Guemes.

Far from any controversy over not being considered in this selection process, Ramón made it clear that he maintains a close relationship with Coudet, whom he even coached in 1999.

In fact, he revealed that their bond is not recent and that there is frequent contact between them: “I always talk to him, Emiliano does too. We’re in touch. Also, when we were at Internacional, he helped us a lot to get to know the club and the environment. I want to thank him and send him a big hug.”

The statements from the man from La Rioja come in a particular context. Although his name was not considered by the management, it had resurfaced due to his own merits and expressly at the request of some fans amid Marcelo Gallardo’s departure, with banners near the stadium. However, Stefano Di Carlo and Enzo Francescoli chose a different path and moved forward with Coudet to lead this new phase.

Thus, while River seeks to rebuild itself on the football field under new leadership, Ramón has maintained the low profile he has chosen in recent months and decided to step away from the spotlight to send a gesture of support to the one who now occupies the bench.
