Racing Club’s New Coach: Gabriel Heinze in the Lead, but Gustavo Costas Still in the Running

The new Racing coach remains to be seen. In reality, he went on hiatus until the season is over, which could round out a sporting failure in 2023 or the obtaining of a new title. There doesn’t seem to be any half measures. The Academy is three games away from winning the League Cup, but also from closing a year without stars and not even qualifying for the 2024 Copa Libertadores. In this context, since the departure of Fernando Gago, the club is analyzing coaches. In the last few hours, Racing de Alma was able to confirm that there was already a call from the leadership to Gabriel Heinze.

As is known, Gringo will leave Newell’s once the season is over. According to what was confided to this portal, it was a formal communication very high up, where Heinze’s position was not even defined. In Avellaneda they still do not know if the coach will want to continue working in Argentine football as soon as he leaves Rosario and they sense that he may want to go to Spain. One thing is clear: Heinze is the coach who gathers the consensus of the entire Racing and Mago Capria leadership and is the main target if the season does not end in the best way for the Academy.

Costas is still in the race, but from behind.

However, this does not mean that he is today the technician with the best chance of reaching Racing. In fact, it is likely that no one will arrive if Grazzini and Videla leave good feelings in these last games. The club practically takes it for granted that the technical duo will continue if they manage to win the League Cup. But also, be careful, if you don’t make it but the role is good. What does this mean? They are probably finalists.

Finally, the option of Gustavo Costas is also still valid and on the table. The former coach of the Bolivian national team has already presented his sports project and was the third candidate. “The emergency one,” they define it in the hallways. How would the assumption of Costas be possible then? The technical duo would have to close the year with poor results and Gabriel Heinze decline a proposal from Racing that he does not yet have in his hands to be the coach. Gustavo is looking forward to it and is waiting anxiously, although at this moment he is running from behind.

Details of the project presented by Costas

From Racing they contacted Fernando “Jito” Alonso to arrange a meeting with Gustavo and listen to his ideas. The DT went to the talk with three ready-made folders. At the request of the club authorities, in one of them he carried out an analysis of the team’s last six productions. In that summary, the coach remarkedamong other points, constant individual duels lost both in defense and attack and aimed to recover that gap that the Academy knew how to have in one on one. For this, surely, the return of Johan Carbonero to his full potential will be key, today in rehabilitation for a tear in the proximal rectum of his left leg.
