"The club is already focused on finding a new coach for the competitions awaiting us in 2025," concluded the Tatengue's message.
Regardless of the outcome, Kily is leaving Tatengue due to the strained relationship with the management and the squad, and because of the negative results in recent times
"The club is already focused on finding a new coach for the competitions awaiting us in 2025," concluded the Tatengue's message.
The combination of poor results, inconsistent performance both in the local league and the Copa Sudamericana, and some internal conflicts led to Cristian Kily González's departure, who will no longer be Unión's head coach after Monday's match against Defensa y Justicia.
"Club Atlético Unión announces that by mutual agreement Cristian González will no longer be the coach. This afternoon he will lead his last match against Defensa y Justicia," announced the Santa Fe club in a statement published on its official X account.
In the same message, the club added: "Thank you very much Kily and coaching staff for the passion and professionalism you brought to our institution and for the moments lived that left a mark on all the Tatengues. Since your arrival, the club has been enriched by your national and international career."
With the departure already confirmed, the management is working on finding a successor. Among the first names being mentioned are:
In the 14 matches played in 2025, the Santa Fe team achieved 4 wins, 2 draws, and 8 losses. The most important victory was against Cruzeiro in the Copa Sudamericana debut, where they are currently third with 3 points.
As for the coach, since his arrival at Tatengue, Cristian González led the team in 77 matches, obtaining 25 wins, 25 draws, and 27 losses.
