Martín Palermo decided to reject Unión's proposal to take over as the new head coach following the consensual departure of Kily González. Meanwhile, the management has already initiated contacts with Cacique Medina, although his arrival doesn't seem easy and there are other candidates under evaluation.
Just hours after the end of González's tenure was made official, which had started in June 2023, Luis Spahnel, president of the Santa Fe club, directly contacted Palermo. The former top scorer was recently released from Olimpia after the tough 4-0 defeat against Vélez in the Libertadores.
However, despite appreciating the call, the Titan replied negatively. In his response, he said that he decided to rest and not coach in the short term after his recent experience in Paraguayan soccer, where he was champion last year.
