The present of Independent there does not seem to be a sun rising on the horizon. To the political conflict that broke out in December last year with the postponement of the presidential elections was added a chapter of profound sporting irregularity that left the club out of the club coach Eduardo Dominguez and in the last few hours I could add another output: Daniel Montenegro would resign from his position as sports advisor.
The Rolfi had landed in October 2021 and quickly became the protagonist of a conflict with the departure of Julio César Falcioni of the coaching position. criticized by him Emperor Due to the ways in which he led his departure, Montenegro promoted the landing of Domínguez as DT.
Two weeks ago, after the defeat against Racing in the classic and outraged by the movement of the Rojo in the transfer market, Domínguez decided to step aside, bringing one more conflict to the stage. reserve coach, Claudio Graftook command while Rolfi and the directive defined the future DT. The detail? Graf landed at the Avellaneda club as part of the Montenegro work team and now his internship is also unknown. The next game will be on Monday, August 1 as a visitor against Colón for the 11th date of the Professional League.
During the last hours, while the last name of Gabriel Heinze as the one chosen by Montenegro for the position, it was leaked that the leadership headed by Hugo Moyano and Yoyo Maldonado would be interested in the return of the Emperor Falcioni for the position. That seemed to be the last straw.
Falcioni, after leaving Colón, gave an interview on Monday to ESPN where he reviewed this conflict. “His ways towards me were not correct. Yes, the decision because he wanted to put together his work group, put his people. The technicians he was talking to called me to say: ‘Are you leaving Julio?’ He was next to us every day and I told him that it seemed to me that he was not doing things right.. I can say it publicly because I told him. I have no problem with him, but he won’t call me”, expressed the Emperor before the rumors of a return to Avellaneda.
As it was known, during the first hours of Tuesday, Montenegro arrived at training to announce his news to the squad, although until now this determination was not made official either by the entity or by the former soccer player.
the team already accumulates six consecutive presentations without victories with five defeats and a draw. However, the sports leg is just one more scene in the club’s great drama. The main focus of the problem is in the lengthy presidential elections that led to a violent confrontation between the fans and the Police last Friday at the door of the headquarters while the ruling party held an Assembly with just four representatives of its board.
The Justice decided to endorse the request of the opposition led by Fabián Doman and demanded that the Independent Electoral Board allow him to participate in the elections. Given this, there were two paths left for the ruling party headed by Moyano: appeal again or put a new date for the vote on the table.
After the violent conflict between fans and security forces, Moyano would be willing to speed up the electoral process once and for all beyond that he linked the confrontation on Friday to a “mafia” linked to national politics. “This gang that manages and intends to take over Independiente, headed by (Fabián) Doman, (Cristian) Ritondo, (Florencia) Arietto and Patricia Bullrich”he claimed.
