Ezequiel Medrán is in Guayaquil to become Emelec's new manager | OneFootball

Ezequiel Medrán, the Argentine coach who will take charge of Emelec, arrived in Guayaquil this Thursday, August 27, 2026. The 45-year-old manager, whose last club was Colón, will take over at the ‘Bombillo’ from his compatriot Cristian Nasuti, even though the ‘blue’ board has not yet officially announced the departure of the ‘Tano’.

Upon arriving at José Joaquín de Olmedo Airport in the Pearl of the Pacific, Medrán thanked the press for the welcome. However, he did not want to give details about his link to the ‘millionaire’ side.

“More than anything, I want to greet you, be respectful of all your work. Surely in the coming days we will organize a press conference so we can speak to everyone in the same way,” said the native of Rafaela.

It is a fact that Medrán, whether from the bench or the stands, will be at Capwell Stadium this Sunday, August 30, starting at 6:00 p.m., when Emelec face Leones FC on Matchday 27 of the LigaPro.

Meanwhile, the ‘Bombillo’ continue fine-tuning their squad to face the ‘felinos’, in an effort to leave the relegation hexagonal zone. This is because the ‘blues’ are in 12th place in the LigaPro with 32 points.
