Colón choose Medrán's successor: Delfino and Gracián lead the race

José Alonso is stepping up the search for Colón’s new head coach after the decision to bring Ezequiel Medrán’s tenure to an end. While the board works to resolve the succession as soon as possible, the name that most appeals to the president is Facundo Sava.

“Colorado” is not the main option, however, since he is currently in charge of Sarmiento de Junín, a situation that complicates the timeline and makes an immediate resolution difficult. Sava’s continuity with the Buenos Aires side is the main obstacle to his taking over at El Sabalero, which is why, as of today, he would be the third option.

Given this scenario, two names are gaining more and more traction with the club’s leadership. Iván Delfino, who has already had a spell at the club and knows the Colón environment, and Leandro Gracián appear as the strongest alternatives if negotiations for Sava do not move forward.

At this time, both Delfino and “Tano” Gracián are the leading candidates to succeed Ezequiel Medrán. José Alonso and sporting director Diego Colotto intend to define the team’s new manager as quickly as possible in order to begin preparing for the next Primera Nacional match and get the promotion push back on track.
