Leonardo Madelón and Unión, ever closer to staying together | OneFootball

While the squad enjoys a few days off after the end of the semester, at Unión there is one matter drawing much of the leadership’s attention: securing the continuity of Leonardo Madelón. The coach is also on leave and has left the talks in the hands of his representatives.

The situation, unlike other complex negotiations in the past, now appears fairly clear. Both the club and Madelón himself want to continue together. That shared objective is the main driving force behind the talks moving in a positive direction.

However, it’s not all about the numbers. Although there are still some contractual points to be resolved, at Unión they believe the financial differences should not become a decisive obstacle to reaching an agreement. What truly takes center stage is the sporting project.

A clear path for Madelón to stay on

Madelón wants to know what tools he will have at his disposal to face the second half of the season. The makeup of the squad, the reinforcements who may arrive, and medium-term planning appear as key aspects within the negotiation. He wants to pursue more ambitious goals.

In that regard, both sides know that several decisions need to start being made now, beyond the fact that any renewal would also have an impact with the future in mind. The possible departure of some important players is only being projected for December, but planning for that scenario begins with this transfer window.

That is why the talks are moving forward on several fronts at the same time. It is not just about signing a contract, but about agreeing on a working plan for the coming months. In recent hours, there have reportedly been concrete developments that are fueling optimism. For now, nothing has been finalized, but everything points to the same outcome: Leonardo Madelón would remain Unión’s head coach and renew his contract for at least one more season.
