The presentation made yesterday by Marcelo Bielsa had an impact, although not as much as ten years ago when he jumped into the electoral arena as the coach of one of Athletic’s presidential hopefuls. So it will hold hands with Josu Urrutia. Now from Iñaki Arechabaleta.

The coach from Rosario provided details of all kinds in an intervention, this time recorded on video, which took an hour and will be posted on the website of his current candidacy.
