Sebastian “Chirola” Romero appears as the candidate with the most chances to be the new technical director of the First Division team of Club de Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata after it was revealed that Nestor “Pipo” Gorosito He would leave office after reaching an agreement in principle with the new leadership to terminate the contract he had signed prior to the elections that were held on November 27.
The current Tripera leadership would offer the position to Romero, who, since he meets several requirements: knows the club, has a consensus among the fans, did a good job as a reserve coach and in promoting youth. To this is added that his contract is within the possibilities that he can pay for the current management.
The new board headed by Marian Cowen He presented a report days ago on the economic and financial situation in which they found the institution with a monthly liability of 94 million pesos.
The new president, who never questioned Gorosito’s technical capacity, stated that the new link was very onerous and beyond the possibilities of the institution.
The agreement was not easy and several meetings took place throughout the week. Gymnastics maintains a debt with Pipo and his coaching staff of three months’ salary and also the prize for qualifying for the Copa Sudamericana.
Gorosito’s campaign in Gymnastics was very good: out of 60 games, he won 27, tied 16 and lost 17. Under his leadership, Lobo scored 74 goals, conceded 59 and achieved a performance of 53.89 percent efficiency.
Several juniors were promoted, the team moved away from the relegation zone and qualified to play international competition.
The relationship with the new board has not been good since he took office less than a month ago and much of the anger is due to the fact that the squad did not start the preseason on December 5 due to the inherited debt.
