El Muñeco assured that he is visualizing what could be the next step in his career after leaving River and added: "I need a sense of identification. If I don't get it, I have no problem continuing with what I'm doing now."

After eight years that were the most successful in the history of River, in which seven local and seven international titles were won, Marcelo Gallardo put his coaching career on hold after leaving the club in December and, in the last hours , broke the silence to refer to what will be the next step.

Marcelo Gallardo and his next step as a coach
In a dialogue with The Athletic media, the Doll assured that he is visualizing what the next step in his career could be and added: “I need to find a place that makes me feel something. I need a sense of identification. If I don't get it, I have no problem continuing with what I'm doing now."

His successful passage through River meant great wear and tear for Gallardo, who is characterized by his intensity in training, in games and by completely immersing himself in what the club is. “I was completely immersed in it for eight and a half years. More than anything, I have been enjoying the opportunity to be away from football.

 

 

I enjoyed my time, my space, my loved ones, my friends, the beautiful things in life. I was able to relax without having my head buried in work," he stated.

Currently, the DT from Merlo is in the orbit of great European teams such as Chelsea from England and PSG from France ahead of the start of next season, and Gallardo gave details about what is coming: "I would have to know the model and the culture of the club. You can't ignore the history of the place where you're going to work and live. That part is incredibly important."

“There has to be a feeling. I have to know what kind of journey I am embarking on. After that, it all comes down to results; no coach can escape that. However, looking at certain trends and how certain projects are being managed… if you don't find something that you really identify with, from the beginning, it will be very difficult, "he added with The Athletic.

Marcelo Gallardo then said that the other things he needs in a team can be built, adding: "I don't rule anything out, but now I'm at a point in my life where I would (only) welcome something that checks those boxes. Otherwise, I will remain calm and continue to prepare, waiting for that moment to come."

Lastly, the Doll was surprised when he stated that possibly "he won't be a coach for the rest of his life": “Maybe he will train for six, seven, eight more years and then try something else. That is a vision I have for the coming years. But I'm going to see how I feel in each moment and enjoy it. Just as I enjoyed my eight years at River. Like I'm enjoying my life right now. Maybe tomorrow I'll be enjoying something new that motivates me”.
