The Argentine coach Diego Gabriel Raimondi provided his first press conference as a press conference on Thursday as coach of América de Cali. He attended the media in the company of Marcela Gómez, president of the Scarlet Table. Among the issues for which they were questioned was the continuity of Juan Fernando Quintero.
“Juanfer traveled. We have a conversation with him and his businessman pending, But for now he is a club player, ”said Gomez to refer to the future of the Antioquia midfielder.
Raimondi also spoke on that same line, who said that “any technician in the world would be happy to have a player of those characteristics, but there are dynamics that escape the coaches. There are meetings and talks of which I do not have to speak. ”
Regarding his presentation with the scarlet painting, the Argentine strategist spoke of the challenge that means to assume the reins of one of the largest teams in Colombian professional football. He has experience in the rise of Italy and as an assistant to Diego Alonso in the selection of Uruguay and Seville.
“I have not had this degree of pressure in a large. There are two types of pressures: work and those of daily life. In life I have had many pressures, but this is a pretty pressure to know how to carry. It is not for everyone to be in such a big and important club; It must be transformed into positive things, ”said Raimondi.
The future of 'Juanfer' Quintero
Juan Fernando Quintero, who arrived in America in January, said last week that every six months analyzes his situation with his mind to compete and win. He also said that, in case of leaving the team, it will be the same who will give the announcement.
“If we have done something for America, it is to put it on the international level, that everyone see this giant again. We have a big chance this second semester, and perhaps, if the parties are not in that line, it will be difficult,” published the 32 -year -old steering wheel on their social networks on June 20.
Quintero, in his first semester as a footballer of the scarlet painting, played 21 games, scored three goals and provided five assists. It was part of the squad that ended in the first place of the phase of all against all of the Betplay League and classified the play-offs of the South American Cup.
