This is about Román Huespe, who has no experience and demonstrates an enormous lack of knowledge regarding the role
Román Huespe is the candidate for Talleres president representing the group "Talleres somos todos" in the elections to be held on October 19.
He is a municipal employee, Peronist, and without experience in the role, who seeks to defeat current president, Andrés Fassi, who took the club out of Federal A and led it to compete in international cups, play finals, and win titles.

In a dismissive manner, Huespe says that it is not difficult to run a monumental club like "T".
"Sports management has no secrets," he states.
The candidate is 52 years old and is a Business Administrator.
He was a municipal official during Governor Martín Llaryora's administration, where he served as Director of Sports Centers in the Undersecretariat of Sports and Recreation.
That is where his relationship with legislator and national deputy candidate, Miguel Siciliano, comes from.
Currently, he serves as a cabinet advisor in the Municipality.
Far from hiding his political affiliation, Huespe claims it with pride.

"I come from politics and I believe that one of the problems Talleres has is not having a political perspective. We need to have relationships and connections with all institutions, not as it is now, where we are at odds with everyone," he said.
The proposal of the unknown Huespe for Talleres
He is considering a working system in the style of the "Monchi method", developed by Ramón Rodríguez Verdejo for Sevilla, with a Sporting Director as the captain of the ship.
He also plans a reform of the club's Statute; the professionalization of all areas; and a social facility for the members.
"Today, the members raise their hands and say present," Huespe said when presenting the electoral front.
The list is completed with "people who have always been part of Talleres' life."
It brings together current and former directors, assembly members, and other opposition groups who decided to join the electoral alternative, such as Más Talleres, Primero Talleres, and Talleres es La Docta.
The names include brothers Marcelo and Matías Brusa, Osvaldo Tahan, José Tanus Rufeil, Daniel Quinteros, Gachi Martínez, Matías Del Pino, and Mario Brito.
He also has the support of former players David Díaz and Santiago del Sotto.
