The Blue Cross coach is the clear favorite to take the baton of Peru when Gareca ends his contract
It is possible that the whole of Peru is closely following in the footsteps of Joan Reynoso in command of the Blue Cross., Although in particular, the Inca press rejoices in his nine consecutive victories and places him as a natural candidate for the Peruvian National Football Team in the medium or long term, as they are clear that he could take over the technical direction until Ricardo Gareca fulfills his contract, in almost two years.
Undisputed candidate for the future
Pere Canelo, from the newspaper El Comerç, told ESPN Digital that “as a journalist, I don’t put Joan on a waiting list, because I think most professionals, like him, live the moment, live their process, and he is starting a fairly successful and ambitious project with Blue Cross”.
“We are very happy that he is doing well, we are following his figures, the pace that the team has taken, a winner, because he is a compatriot, but there is one more issue: Ricardo Gareca has just said in a conference that he does not plan to resign, although Peru started the qualifiers badly. Then, there are two very marked situations, that Peru has technician until at least a year and a half more, and that Joan is is with a process in Blue Cross”.
However, he stated, “If you ask me in the future, Joan is an undisputed candidate for the Peruvian National Team. I don’t know if after Gareca, I don’t know if later yet, but if you ask me for a look the day after Gareca’s contract ends, I think Joan Reynoso should be at least among the three options for new technician of Peru “.
In Peru they are still in the MX League … and Reynoso
Franz Tamayo, journalist of the Depor Newspaper in Peru, explained: “Here the Mexican League is followed quite by the good moment as much of Blue Cross, As of the America. Blue Cross by Juan and Yotún, now adds Ormeño and its great moment in Spain Pobla. Then, it has become quite attractive and in itself, the Peruvians follow the Mexican League for so many of our representatives who have passed through there. “
He said that “last year, Joan had already left us a pleasant impression of what he came to do with Puebla and now that he has reached Blue Cross he applauded quite a bit; in fact, we didn’t think he would get to this club so fast, even though it was known to be one of his goals, as the team means for Joan. “
“His name has always sounded to be the replacement for Ricardo Gareca, especially when the last qualifiers ended, where in the first four dates, Peru only added one point. Here his name usually sounds for the bigger teams, as they are University and Alliance of Lima, since he is a technician who likes much to both clubs, although with Alliance to Second Division is almost impossible, and in University many fans dream to have him for his birthday, which is in a couple of years, as he is the last coach to take champion in the ‘O’ at the Monumental ”.
Tamayo added: “It seems to me that he is the Peruvian coach who is at his best, also because he is in a foreign league and because of the profile he has. It is not normal to follow the career of a coach, but rather that of a player, but he is the only representative outside Peru, in addition, everyone is sure that when Gareca leaves, he will be the one who takes the control in the target-and-, Juan Reynoso it is wanted for that “.
They are waiting for him champion with Blue Cross
Jean Pierre Maraví, from the Comerç del Perú, was also sincere in his statement: “I am very happy that Joan is doing well in a team where he achieved important things as a footballer. In fact, he had already been in Hidalgo Blue Cross, Where he led 40 games, of which he won nine, drew 15 and lost 16. He is a coach who has shown a lot of ability, is very studious and passionate about it. In the long run, he can do well as a coach, because he knows the idiosyncrasy of the Blue Cross. “
“Here in the country, everyone is watching how Joan is doing and the performance of Yotún, As it interests the players of the Peruvian selectionhave pace to be able to meet the goals set as a team. I think at some point Reynoso is going to take over, but I think Gareca will continue until his contract ends. While it is true, Peru has not started well, it has only added one point out of six possible, it will continue in office, because it has the support of President Agustín Lozano and Juan Carlos Oblitas. “
“I consider that Gareca he has done a great job in the selection, in terms of convincing the squad, and has made the Peruvian player more responsible and competitive. Although there have been some cases of indiscipline, he has been able to take care of the group and this has been the key for the players to be dead with him and to be convinced to get out of this bad situation in which they find themselves. “
However, he explained: “I consider that Joan, at some point, took on this challenge, because he has the necessary merits to be the DT of the absolute Peruvian National Team. We hope you can continue on this path where Blue Cross he has a chance to fight the title that has been denied them for a long time; it would be fabulous for Joan to be able to break that bad fortune and get back to the team where she deserves to be. “
The reasons for his arrival
Finally, Álvaro José Mamani, from Tacna Radio 1, agreed with the above: “Here, people were excited about Juan’s nine victories with Blue Cross and I think by the time of Ricardo Gareca, Is a very clear choice for selection. Here it is said: ‘Let Gareca not cool down, because Juan is behind’, everyone agrees that it is one of the first options to lead the team “.
“Maybe in this process, or maybe in the next one, Juan will get on the ‘bus’ of the Selection of Peru, Because Gareca’s resignation is closer than it seems, not only because of the nine victories, but because he leads Yotún, has worked in Peruvian football, has his ideas very clear and has transcended internationally in Mexico; in addition to being champion here in Peru “.
