Universidad de Chile lives crucial hours. Hernán Caputto has already arrived at the CDA and this afternoon the Azul Azul board of directors will define his continuity, although the die seems cast and the one born in San Andrés de Giles will cease to be a university coach.
The subject now happens to be its replacement. And in the leadership of the U there is a short list of four candidates, in which everything points to a conclusion. It is the determination that they hope to trace in Chuncho from this day on.
The first intention of the board of the concessionaire was Argentine Gabriel Heinze, who in March stopped training Vélez Sarsfield, after saving him from relegation. However, the door faces a reality: there is no money.
The intention of the table was to hold out with Caputto until next year, to afford more dollars for the investment not only for the trans-Andean coach, but also in a package of reinforcements that would arrive at his request.
However, the pandemic and the crisis that the university team is experiencing, which was about to change owners, threw the idea to the ground. And the same happened with the second great name, Rafael Dudamel, the man that President Cristián Aubert wanted.
The helmsman’s plan B is José Luis Sierra, who has not managed since his passage through the Middle East in 2019. El Coto, of course, has as against his past as a player and coach of Colo Colo, a combination that does not contribute to the blue moment.
In such a way that the remaining option is the only one left standing. And it is nothing less than Martín Lasarte, who won a National Championship, a Chile Cup and a Super Cup, during his cycle between 2014 and 2015.
His knowledge of the blue box and the lower economic cost of the operation put the Uruguayan at the head of the possibilities, waiting for the board to define what to do with Hernán Caputto. It may be a matter of hours.
Universidad de Chile finished the first round of the championship ten points behind the leader, Unión La Calera. The blue team only won four of the last six points in dispute.
