In a recent survey conducted by Clarín, the search for the successor to Marcelo Gallardo as head coach of River Plate has ignited considerable interest among fans and management alike. The beloved Gallardo, known as 'El Muñeco', is set to bid farewell to supporters at the Monumental Stadium after a series of disappointing losses in the Torneo Apertura. The team's leadership is actively pursuing potential replacements, weighing various candidates to revitalize the squad's performance.
Eduardo Coudet, currently managing Alavés in Spain, appears to be the frontrunner for the position.

Meanwhile, Hernán Crespo, who is coaching São Paulo, and Pablo Aimar, a former player and current member of the Argentine national team coaching staff, are also being considered. Fans are speculating on who would be the best fit to reverse the team's challenging situation following their recent struggles.
As negotiations and discussions unfold, River Plate supporters are anxious for a decision, hoping for a new head coach who can bring the club back to its winning ways. The outcome of this leadership selection is critical, not only for the team's immediate performance in league play but also for its broader aspirations in regional competitions and maintaining its esteemed status in South American football.
