Walter Otta on Primera Nacional: «Adapt, history is in the past» | OneFootball

Deportivo Morón head coach Walter Otta spoke exclusively with the ADN program on Radio Gol 96.7, hosted by Darío Pignata, and analyzed his team’s current status as one of the protagonists in Primera Nacional.

Regarding the rumors linking him with Sabalero, the manager was emphatic in explaining that there was never any formal contact. “The truth is no, at least neither I nor my representatives were ever told anything,” he clarified, before making clear what the “Gallito’s” real goal is: “More than a desire, we already see it as an objective; our objective is to take Morón to the first division.”

When analyzing Primera Nacional, Otta described it as a very complicated and difficult division, criticizing the lack of rewards in the current format. “I think it offers the least reward for any very good campaign you can have; the reward is very small for the number of teams, and it’s cruel, but it’s the most beautiful tournament there is.” In that sense, he reflected on how complex it is for historic clubs to adapt to the reality of the division.

“As much as it hurts us, and maybe it must hurt fans of very big teams like Colón, history is left far behind when you drop to the B Nacional,” he said, adding that “you have to get used to living in the present you’re in and be aware of where you are.”

Finally, the coach opened up about the enormous pressures surrounding his profession and the need to seek professional support. “Today I’m in the hands of a psychologist; thank God the psychiatrist discharged me,” he confessed quite naturally, arguing that this support is indispensable.
