Alejandro Trionfini named reserve coach: "Got the call, back home" | OneFootball

Alejandro Trionfini is the brand-new coach of Unión's Reserve team, a position he takes on after spending some time working abroad. In an interview at the Radio GOL 96.7 FM studios during the ADN morning show, he shared details about his return to the club.

Trionfini, who previously had a stint at the institution as a youth coordinator from 2014-2017, emphasized the importance of returning to his region: “it's a club I love, that one feels, returning again to my region, returning with my loved ones, returning to my people, it has a beautiful project.”

The coach spoke about the peculiarities of his career, which are not always planned, and how this opportunity came about: “Our career has those aspects that one does not expect, that one does not plan, because it wasn't in the plan, but the planets align for things to happen at the right moment.”

Regarding his previous experience in the Dominican Republic and Uruguay, where he managed professional teams and youth national teams, he mentioned: “I have been outside the country for eight years, six and a half in the Dominican Republic and a little over a year in Uruguay, working.” During his time in the Caribbean, he had the opportunity to work with the Under-20 National Team, a “beautiful project.”

Speaking about his identity as a professional and his role in the reserve, which is the step before the first division, Trionfini stated: “in essence, I am a football coach, because that's how I started, the first option I have as a coordinator is with Nico Fruto to coordinate the youth teams.” He added that the reserve “is the necessary and obligatory step between the youth divisions and the first division.”

Trionfini's technical team is made up of collaborators who were already with Nicolás Vazzoler, who was promoted to Leonardo Madelón's technical team. The collaborators are Francisco “Pancho” Vazzoler and Juan de Olivera as assistant coaches, and Matías Trionfini as the physical trainer, who is also his son.

Finally, regarding the club's structure and his work philosophy, which must be aligned with the first team, he noted:
