Independiente is still looking for a coach to replace Carlos Tevez and, in the last few hours, a new surname appeared.
The search for a new coach It is the main theme that surrounds everyone Independent. After the departure of Carlos Tevez, many names of coaches began to be heard, but as the days went by the options decreased. In the last hours, as far as he could tell Red hellthe surname of a surprise DT He got on the list of candidates.
The new option that appeared is Nicolás Larcamón, a 39-year-old Argentine coach with no experience in Argentine soccer, but with good experience abroad. His career as a coach began in 2016, when he had the opportunity to coach the Deportivo Anzoátegui of Venezuela. On that team he directed 59 games: 27 wins, 16 draws and 16 losses.
Then, took a step forward and landed in Chilean footballwhere he directed Deportes Antofagasta in 2017, Huachipato between 2018 and 2019, and Curicó Unidos in 2020. His good experiences opened a market for him and he arrived at Puebla de México, a team in which he was in charge for 81 games (27V-32E-22D ) between 2021 and 2022.
His first title as a coach came when he had the opportunity to coach León, also from Mexico, in 2023. He managed to be crowned champion of the CONCACAF Champions League. His record with the Fieras shows 39 matches coached, where he achieved 15 wins, 12 draws and 12 falls.
Larcamón’s last experience was at Cruzeiro in 2024, where despite achieving good results he only stayed for a handful of months. What happened? His team reached the final of the Mineiro Championship, but lost to Atlético Mineiro, the classic rival. This result hastened his departure, which was already worn out by the bad relationship with the board of directors. In total, he directed 14 games (7W-4D-3D) and obtained 59.5% effectiveness.
His last name was related to San Lorenzo a month ago, but the coach chose to take some more time off after his departure from Cruzeiro and the Ciclón was in a hurry to define who would be his new coach. Now, Larcamón is an option for Independiente and, as InfiernoRojo learned, this Thursday a contact will be established to find out about his project.
In this way, he adds to the list of names that he has at his disposal. Guillermo Barros Schelottowhose arrival seems to be almost impossible, Mauricio Pellegrinowho is liked by the leadership but who still has to resolve his departure from Cádiz – he was relegated last weekend to the second in Spain -, and Julio Vaccariwith whom Independiente has a pending conversation with Christian Bragarnik, the coach’s agent, over the debts of Iván Marcone and Facundo Ferreyra.
