Mono Burgos named new coach of Newell's Old Boys

The Argentinian coach begins his journey as a head coach in his native land in what is his first role since leaving Atleti last summer.

Burgos has agreed a deal to join the Rosario-based club until December, with the option to extend it for another year if both parties agree.

The 51-year-old is expected to arrive in Rosario on Monday and to take his first training session on Tuesday afternoon at the Estadio Marcelo Bielsa ahead of his first match on Friday against Union Santa Fe.

Burgos replaces Frank Dario Kudelka, who left after a 4-0 defeat to Defensa y Justicia on Saturday in the fifth Matchday of the Copa de la Liga Profesional.
