The coach announced great news on Friday Jorge Almiron in Colo Colo. Since he made public that several people trained at home are in his plans for the second round of the National Championship 2024.
After the departure of the forward Damian Pizarro to the Udinese from Italy, the albos were presented with a new problem, which has to do with compliance with the Sub 21 minutes.
The native of La Pintana was the player who had added the most in this item, considering that because it was the 2005 category he counted double, unlike those born after January 1, 2003.
The Sub 21 minutes that Colo Colo has
Until the close of the first round, the albos had completed 921 Sub 21 minutes, subtracting 969 ‘to reach the final goal of 1,890’ and thus not risk subtracting points at the end of the tournament. As dictated by the rules of the First Division National Championship.
And given that, the Argentine coach himself indicated yesterday in a press conference that he has already worked out who will help him comply with this requirement.
The youth players who became essential for Jorge Almirón
This is a group of homegrown players that had been relegated and it was even believed that they could go out on loan in this winter market. Among them is the defender Daniel Gutierrez (2003), the steering wheel Lucas Soto (2003), the side Matias Pinto (2004) and the forward Leandro Hernandez (2005).
“They are working with us. We have Daniel Gutiérrez, Lucas Soto, Hernández, Pinto considered by age. There are several boys who show their age and are in that process,” Almirón explained.
Along these lines, he explained that these youth players are working alongside the first team to be considered during the second semester.
“It has also helped them, beyond not playing, training hard with a good team, they have acquired some experience. Beyond the fact that the player always measures himself on the field, in the games, in training they have done better, they already have a lot of training in their body. When it’s their turn to play, they’re going to do well. We are going to comply with the minor rule well,” he concluded.
