Two months after leaving Gimnasia, Broggi nears a big step up | OneFootball

“Chacho” wants to strengthen his coaching staff for the second half of the year.

With the squad on vacation leave, River coach Eduardo Coudet is not only working in the transfer market to strengthen his team, but is also in talks to finalize an addition to his staff for the second half of the season.

“Chacho” called Ariel Broggi, former Gimnasia de Mendoza coach, to express his interest in bringing him into his coaching staff, since he was his assistant coach during his spells at Racing, Inter de Porto Alegre, Celta de Vigo, and Atlético Mineiro.

Following these calls, negotiations and talks are still ongoing in order to reach a successful agreement. Broggi, for his part, has been out of work since leaving Gimnasia de Mendoza at the end of March after completing the first part of the Torneo Apertura group stage.

Working together, they won the three titles of “Chacho’s” career. Two of them came with Racing—the 2018/19 Superliga and the 2019 Trofeo de Campeones—while the third was with Atlético Mineiro, with whom they won the 2023 Mineiro Championship.

Throughout his career, Broggi worked with Coudet at four clubs until he decided to strike out on his own as a head coach. In that role, he worked at Banfield and Gimnasia de Mendoza, where he secured promotion to the Liga Profesional after winning the Primera Nacional in 2025.

“Chacho’s” intention is for Broggi to join his staff ahead of the team’s return to training, when the squad will undergo the corresponding medical checkups and then travel to Spain for the most demanding part of preseason.

Ariel Broggi’s numbers as a coach

Throughout his coaching career, Broggi managed 40 matches during his spells at Banfield and Gimnasia de Mendoza. In those games, he recorded 13 wins, 10 draws, and 17 losses. He was also crowned Primera Nacional champion with the Mendoza side.
