Platense is preparing for the Champions Trophy grand final against Estudiantes, where it will return to action after more than a month of inactivity. In addition, Walter Zunino will make his debut as coach of Calamar precisely in a final at the end of the year. There are some doubts about the eleven.
Firstly, the coach would bet on the basis of the team that won the Apertura and played a large part of the Clausura, barring some dips in performance.
One of the doubts lies in the goal: whether he keeps Andrés Desábato or whether he gives Federico Losas a chance. Then the other unknown is in midfield: whether he will rely on Santiago Toloza or whether he will play Ignacio Schor, who would play his last game for Calamar as he will be a free agent at the end of the year. There are currently no signs of renewal.
The good news will be the return of Ronaldo Martínez, who missed the final part of the Clausura due to injury. And besides, everything indicates that it will be his last game at the club, as he has a great chance of being sold to Pumas de México. While we wait for today’s training, the following team emerges: Desábato; Saborido, Vazquez, Salomon, Silva; Mainero, Herrera, Picco, Zapiola; Toloza; Martínez.
What will happen to Vázquez?
One of the problems to be solved by Platense will be the future of Ignacio Vázquez, who has a contract with Calamar until December 2028. However, his intention would be to leave the club in the next transfer market.
A few days ago, the defender indicated that there was interest from San Lorenzo, but we will have to see if there is an offer due to the economic and institutional crisis that the Bajo Flores club is going through.
“Damián Ayude called me, but I’m focused on the final. After the game I will analyze my future,” emphasized the central defender in response to Ciclón’s request.
Another club that wanted him in the middle of this year is Racing, as Vázquez stated he was a fan of the academy. There are currently no negotiations, but it could also be an option.
