Back again: Daniel Oldrá is Godoy Cruz's sporting director | OneFootball

After several days of negotiations, this Thursday Daniel Oldrá finally reached an agreement with president José Mansur and sealed his return to Godoy Cruz Antonio Tomba.

Gato, who left a year ago to become head coach of Instituto de Córdoba, returns to the club he loves to take on the role in which he feels most comfortable.

“A leading figure in our history, identity, and sense of belonging, who will continue contributing his experience and love for these colors from a key position for the club’s future,” the statement added, alongside a photo of Oldrá at the Coquimbito training ground.

“I’m super happy and I want to thank you, once again, for the opportunity to be back in my own home. Today is my mother’s birthday, so it’s a very special day, and surely from heaven she must be very happy because I’ve returned home,” he said emotionally to the club’s official website upon his return.

As for his new role as Sporting Director, Oldrá explained that it will involve “being with the youth players, with the coordinator, with the coach, walking around the training ground, as I’ve always done. I’m not coming to do anything else, but rather to try to help the coaching staff and the players so that we can get back to the top flight as soon as possible.”

Finally, Gato left a message for the Godoy Cruz fans, whom he thanked for their constant affection: “We need you more than ever today, because we all have to stand united to take Godoy Cruz back to the top flight. I can’t do it alone, the players can’t do it alone either, nor can the coaching staff. We have to do it all together.”
