This is how the negotiations go with the Valle del Cauca coach, who will be Carlos Queiroz’s successor in the tricolor squad.
On Thursday afternoon, Reinaldo Rueda landed in Bogotá to close his relationship so that he could become the Colombian team’s new coach. Of course he took a direct flight to Cali because he had to change his plans at the last minute.
The idea was to end the negotiation in person with Ramón Jesurún, president of the FCF, but the manager tested positive for the corona virus and now they will do it virtually. The Valle del Cauca dreams of a long-term project with a contract until 2026.

Everything seems to indicate that their relationship will be closed next week so that he is officially the successor of Carlos Queiroz. His technical assistant will be his right-hand man, Bernardo Redín, and the coaching staff he has always worked with, but it looks like he will also have Alexis Mendoza.
