Precisely, Chile’s first rival in the Copa América will be Perua team in which Gareca left his mark by qualifying them for a World Cup after 36 years and taking them to a playoff.
Gareca stopped directing the Peruvian team after failing to reach an economic agreement with the leaders of the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF) for the renewal of his contract, which concluded after losing the playoff against Australia.
Then, Gareca was coach of Vélez Sarsfield, but had to leave the Argentine team due to poor results. In recent days he was also called to take the reins of the Colombian club América de Cali, where he was a star.
