💣Is he staying? River want Ponzio to stay for good | OneFootball

Following the confirmation of Eduardo “Chacho” Coudet’s departure, Leonardo Ponzio led his first training session with River Plate’s professional squad on Thursday afternoon. The club icon is thus beginning a new chapter in charge of the institution’s technical leadership.

A gamble with a chance of staying on

The intention of the club’s board in Núñez is for the former midfielder to establish himself in the role and become the permanent head coach. However, his continuity in the position will be strictly conditioned by the sporting results he achieves in the upcoming fixtures.

The board will not seek an immediate replacement

For now, the “Millonario” leadership has decided not to look for a new coach on the market. The board fully trusts Ponzio’s ability to lead the team through this transition.
