Sportivo Belgrano to change head coach following poor run
Sportivo Belgrano is undergoing a restructuring of its professional football leadership. The club's board of directors confirmed that Cristian Álvarez and Sebastián Scolari will lead the professional squad for their upcoming match against Bartolomé Mitre de Posadas this Sunday. Following this fixture, the duo will return to their previous roles within the club's youth divisions.
The decision follows a difficult period for the team, which has struggled in the Nonagonal A tournament, securing only two points from fifteen possible and failing to win a match. This coaching transition occurs alongside the recent departure of Nicolás López Macri, who resigned from his position as Sporting Director after three years.
Marcelo Vázquez has emerged as the primary candidate to take over as the new head coach. An experienced manager with a history at clubs such as Gimnasia de Mendoza and San Telmo, Vázquez is expected to be tasked with revitalizing the team for the remainder of the season.
