Highlight in Argentina, Gabriel Milito becomes an option at Cruzeiro

After three years of work in the Argentine Juniors, Gabriel Milito, 42, has resigned as coach and is free on the market. Thus, with a profile that pleases Cruzeiro’s board, the Argentine has become one of the options to take charge of Cabuloso in this second half of the season.

According to ‘GE‘, after coaching the Argentine team for three years, Milito is looking for new air to leverage his short career as a coach. Therefore, it would be available on the market and, most importantly, open to new challenges in the professional environment. However, so far, no proposal has been made officially between the club and the coach.

In addition to being an accessible name in the market, Gabriel Milito has a profile that Cruzeiro likes, with exactly the characteristics that the club looks for in a coach. With a proactive style of play and with a lot of appreciation for possession of the ball, the Argentine seems to be a good name for Cabuloso.

At Argentinos Juniors, the coach was in charge of the bench in 135 games, won 58 wins, drew 33 times and lost on another 44 occasions. Despite the fact that he did not win any titles during his visit, the Argentine press evaluates Milito’s work as positive. Including, he had still contracted until 2027 with the club, but decided to leave.

Last Wednesday, the 30th, the date on which the coach resigned from Argentinos Juniors, ‘hello‘, Argentine newspaper, classified the coach’s decision as “surprising”, as the work was consolidated and well evaluated in local football. One point that could facilitate negotiations is Milito’s good relationship with D’Alessandrocurrent football coordinator at Cruzeiro and former teammate of the Argentine in Zaragozain 2007.
