Ricardo Gareca’s era in La Roja had not had any major upheavals until now. But during the day this Monday, one of the key positions of the Everyone’s Team suffered a drastic modification: The selection management has a new leader.

After 14 months of management, where precisely the Argentine trainer was hired, Rodrigo Robles leaves this important position and makes way for Marko Biskupovic to assume his duties just five weeks before start of the Copa América.

Robles came to the aforementioned job after the departure of the Spaniard Francis Cagigao, at the beginning of 2023, when he was vice president of Audax Italiano and His management will be marked by the resignation of Eduardo Berizzo from the adult team and the arrival of the former coach of Peru.

Plus, your chair will not be left empty. Immediately, from the headquarters of the governing body, they reported that Marko Biskupovic will fulfill his duties and prepare the arrival of Chile to the United States, for its participation in the tournament which won in 2015.

Biskupovic was a player for Universidad Católica, Deportes Puerto Montt, Deportes La Serena and Magallanes, in addition to Kalmar of Sweden and the National Team itself, and served as Head of Identification (ID), Scouting and Analysis of the Chilean Football Federation. Position to which he accepted through public competition under the management of Cagigao.

As can be read on the website of the National Professional Football Association (ANFP), “Biskupovic has studies in Europe, among which stand out a Master in Big Data applied to football at the Catholic University of Murcia (Spain), a course in Data Analytics in Sports at the Johan Cruyff Institute; and is graduated from Bachelor in Sport Management from University Collegue of Northen Denmark, among other studies.

The same ones that must be applied efficiently, since the minor teams did not qualify for any planetary contest and the Roja de Gareca is outside the area that provides tickets for the 2026 World Cup and on June 21 they debut against Rimac in the fair continental on this side of the planet.
