Ezequiel Medrán: "I'm under contract until December 2026" | OneFootball

Ezequiel Medrán spoke after Colón's 1-0 victory against Defensores Unidos de Zárate, in what was the team's farewell in the Primera Nacional and his first victory as head of the professional squad. The Sabalero coach was self-critical about the experiences in this final stretch but also excited about the possibility of continuing in charge beyond the elections on November 30.

Ezequiel Medrán's Particular Vision at Colón

“We were in a constant search to compete in the best way. I arrived with the intention of giving the team an identity, but we didn't achieve it. I take responsibility for that. Even so, this victory is a comfort after so much effort,” expressed Medrán.

He added: “I have a contract in force until December 2026, without clauses or verbal agreements. My desire is to continue because I would love to defend this badge in the next season.”

The coach valued the commitment of the young players in this championship closure and announced that he will work fully on their preparation: “We want to dedicate time to the kids, from the tactical, physical, and conceptual aspects, so they arrive better prepared. Colón has material and it needs to be enhanced.”

What Colón Needs for the Future, According to Medrán

Regarding the future, Medrán emphasized the need for “coherence” and “seriousness” in planning: “Colón has infrastructure and resources, but it needs a clear plan. I want a physical, intense, competitive team. Whoever the new management may be, the club must work together to compete at the top again.”

On the rumors of external pressures, the coach was clear: “I never had impositions. The teams I formed and the changes I made were my own decisions, with successes and mistakes. But always with the peace of mind of working freely.”

With the victory against CADU, Colón closed a year of sporting frustrations but with the hope of a different 2026. Meanwhile, Medrán made it clear that his desire is to continue building at the club and shape a project that returns prominence to the Sabalero team.
