After agreeing on the arrival of Iván Delfino as the replacement for Ezequiel Medrán, Colón finalized the coaching staff that will take on this new footballing challenge. Although almost the entire structure from his previous spell at the club will remain in place, the biggest new development is the addition of Paolo Goltz as assistant coach.

The former center-back, a historic Sabalero figure, will take the place of Federico “La Bruja” Vismara, who had accompanied Delfino during his first spell at the club in 2024.

Goltz’s debut on the Sabalero bench

The appointment of Paolo Goltz is a major move by both the board and the head coach himself. The former defender has deep knowledge of Colón’s day-to-day life: he was a key piece in winning the 2021 Professional League Cup and was also part of the team that suffered relegation in 2023.

Delfino, who already coached him during his previous time in Santa Fe, is once again placing his trust in him to contribute from a strategic role on the bench. His main task will be to provide leadership, a sense of belonging, and closeness with the players at a crucial stage of the Primera Nacional.

A consolidated working structure

Aside from Goltz’s arrival, Delfino’s staff will be the same as the one that shared his first experience at the club, reflecting the trust built through a process of several years together.

The coaching staff was made up as follows:

The goal of getting back on track

With the staff confirmed, only the formal presentation remains before the start of Delfino’s second spell in charge. The immediate goal is to raise the level of a team that still has a mathematical chance of fighting for the top spots in Zone A of the Primera Nacional.

Goltz’s return has generated great excitement among the fans, as his history in the red-and-black shirt and his influence in the dressing room promise to add emotional value and identity in the push for promotion.
