With no competition, Colón return to training under Medrán’s orders | OneFootball

Colón will begin a new phase of training this Monday afternoon at the 4 de Junio Complex, with the return of the players after the end of the regular phase of the tournament. The activity will be led by Ezequiel Medrán, although the particularity of the day will be the division of the squad into three groups, according to each player's contractual and sporting status.

The defined groups of Colón upon their return to work

The first group will consist of the youth players who participated in the professional squad during the final stretch of the championship. They will return to the Reserves, under the guidance of Martín Minella, who will continue to monitor them and consider them for upcoming commitments in the Proyección Cup of the Professional League, ensuring their development and competitive rhythm within the club.

The second group will include the players whose contracts expire on December 31 of this year. These players will perform differentiated and light tasks, as most will not renew for 2026. In this context, the termination of Joel Soñora has already been finalized, while similar agreements are being sought with Marcos Díaz, Gonzalo Bettini, Facundo Sánchez, and José Barreto, among others. In specific cases, such as Federico Jourdan and Christian Bernardi, continuity will depend on the decision of the new Board of Directors, which will take office on December 1 after the elections on November 30.

Those under Medrán's supervision

Finally, the third group will consist of the players with contracts valid until 2026, who will work normally under the supervision of Medrán, preparing for the preseason and the sporting challenges of the coming year.

Despite having expressed his desire to continue, Medrán's continuity as coach is also not guaranteed, as it will depend on what the future club management decides. Monday's session will thus mark the beginning of a process of reorganization and planning at Colón, focusing on defining the squad for 2026 and starting to outline the sports structure for the next cycle.
