The journey of Argentine coach Marcelo Gallardo with River Plate is nearing its end, as it has been decided that the match against Banfield at the Monumental Stadium, as part of the seventh round, will be his last as head of the coaching staff.

According to reports from Argentina, Gallardo will officially leave his position next week, marking the end of a new phase in his career with the club he has been associated with for many years and with which he achieved numerous successes.

In contrast, the River Plate board of directors has begun to move quickly to find a suitable replacement, considering reaching out to Eduardo Coudet, the current coach of Deportivo Alavés, as one of the leading options to lead the team in the upcoming phase.

The next few days will be crucial in determining the identity of the new coach, as River Plate's management is eager to ensure technical stability quickly before continuing the season's journey.
