Marcelo Bielsa is one step away from returning to the bench, this time to a history of Brazilian football. According to various media outlets from Brazil, Santos would be close to signing the Crazy as a new coach after the departure of Lisca. As has been reported, Andrés Rueda, president of Peixe, leads the negotiations with the Argentine coach.

The operation, a priori It’s not easy, it’s on the right track. From Santos they see the legend of the bench as the best option to redirect the team after discarding other alternatives, such as Sebastián Beccacece, also free after leaving the Argentine Defense and Justice; Vanderlei Luxemburgo, an option rejected by the team’s own board of directors; or Mauricio Pellegrino.
Santos faces an atypical season. Lisca’s dismissal just ten days ago after the defeat against Ceará left Peixe in a bad place, who He currently marches in the eleventh position of the Brasileirao. After the setback, Pelé’s team lost the classic from São Paulo against Palmeiras and is on the verge of losing its ticket for the next edition of the Copa Sudamericana.
If he managed to close the incorporation, this would be the first adventure of the Argentine in the lands of samba. Nevertheless, It is not the first time that Santos knocks on Bielsa’s door, since in 2013 the fish offered the team’s cockpit, with the negative response of the preparer. Differences in salary, express request in euros by Bielsa, organization chart of the coaching staff with four coaches or having full control of the football department resulted in the negotiations falling apart.
Bielsa faces this new professional challenge after leaving Leeds last February due to poor results. The former coach of the North of England team left office after four years in charge of him, where he achieved historic promotion to the Premier League after more than fifteen years away from the English elite. In addition, for a time there was speculation about the possibility of a ‘return home’ to Athletic Bilbao, in the event that Iñaki Arechabaleta was victorious in the elections for the presidency of the Basque club.
