Jorge ‘Polilla’ da Silva has already arrived at América de Cali: ‘I want to be a champion as a coach’

The arrival of the Uruguayan coach generated great expectations among the scarlet fans and after his separation from the Muaither of Qatar, the American directives were preparing to welcome him.

This Monday, May 13, the coach arrived in Cali to formally join the team as coach of the Scarlets and at the Alfonso Bonilla Aragón airport he was received by thousands of fans.

“There are many memories, important games… The most important thing was the titles of ’90 and ’92… I was lucky enough to be a champion as a player and now I want to be a champion as a coach,” he added.

Now, what is coming for ‘Polilla’ will be the official presentation before the media, an event that will take place this Tuesday in Cascajal and there he will speak after his return, but also about the plan he has for the club for the second semester.

In his last experience as a coach at Muaither, Jorge da Silva coached a total of 15 games, managing to win two games, draw five and lose eight times, a process that lasted five months.

“People know very well what the América fans are like, they just want the team to fight at the top and be champions, that’s clear to me. I come with that goal,” he concluded.
