Vélez today announced on social networks the hiring of the technical director Guillermo Barros Schelottofor a year with an option to extend the link until 2027, after the Trunco step by Sebastián Domínguez in charge of the team.
“Welcome, Guillermo! Let it be with many successes, Melli”wrote the “Fortín” in the publications made by the institution on the different digital platforms to formalize the incorporation of the coach with a passage through Mouth.
Also, the “twins” released his first words as DT of the Velezano team at the presentation press conference and remembered the idol of Liniers, Carlos Bianchi.
“It is a pride to be in the place where Carlos Bianchi was, one of the technicians who marked me in my career. Being where he started is remarkable.”began the brand new technical director that was led by the “Viceroy” when he defended the blue and gold shirt of the “Xeneize” box.
“I was interested in the project to return to Argentine football to develop youth to fight anyone and build that process, because Vélez has very good inferiors. I liked it and we reached a quick agreement”Barros Schelotto continued.
In turn, he referred to the current present that Vélez is going through in the Opening Tournament of the Professional Soccer League, located in the twelfth position of zone B with eight points in ten days, in which it only managed to add three on two opportunities.
“It is a situation that we knew when making the decision. We are going to work until Saturday and we will see, because beyond the analysis the reality you see on the court and we will see how they are in sports, the football and the physical. The effort of each training will be to get well to the game with Riestra”said the 51 -year -old coach.
The cast of Liniers must be measured against Deportivo Riestra after the recess for the double FIFA date of South American qualifiers towards the 2026 World Cup in what will be the debut of the “Melli” under the command of the squad.
In addition, the “Fortín” met his rivals in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores, which he agreed after becoming the last Argentine soccer champion.
There, it will collide in Group H against Peñarol de Uruguay, Olimpia de Paraguay and San Antonio Bulo Bulo de Bolivia.
“We have to recover the team that was champion. We will be a team that goes out to attack, win, let’s play here or elsewhere. The challenge is to put Vélez at the level that ended last year or even higher and with a boys base,” said the Platense.
Finally, Barros Schelotto clarified that he still did not hold talks with Carlos Bianchi and referred to the expectations of the fans around his arrival, since he managed to reach the final of the Copa Libertadores with Boca in 2018 against River, which ended with defeat for those of the riverbank.
“I did not talk to Bianchi but Gustavo yes. I will surely talk these days, we have an extraordinary relationship, it was an incredible coach. I have the best relationship with him. My expectation is Vélez, the team, the players, study every position. The expectation regarding me does not interest me and the impact I have does not care,” he concluded.
