In what will be his first experience abroad, the Ogre will take on a team that is going through a great present, since he leads the local championship with Shkëndija Tetovo and is the
country's highest historic winner with 11 titles.
However, the challenge will involve adapting to a context completely different from that of Argentine football. Beyond that, in his new phase, he will have a compatriot presence on the squad, since he will direct Diego Castañeda, Ian Puleio
and Joaquín Torres.
The Ogre will take office in June and will have a period of adaptation ahead of him that will include learning the language and knowledge of the club. Thus, he will seek to consolidate his coaching career with his first experience in European football
