Gabriel Heinze, coach of Velez Sarsfield, announced his departure after the end of the season in the Argentine league, while Gabriel Milito resigned from Estudiantes training.
Heinze announced at the press conference before facing Santa Fe in the last round of the Argentine League that he was leaving the team after the meeting.
The former Manchester United and Real Madrid defender commented on his departure at the press conference, saying: “Monday’s match will be the last with this club that took a little part of my heart.”
“Velez gave me more than I offered, and that trip ends and I thank the people of this club.”
? Heinze: “El día lunes va a ser mi último partido frente a esta institución. Este club se lleva un pedacito de mi corazón. # Velez me dió mucho más de lo que yo pude darle. Por eso se termina este ciclo que voy a llevar conmigo. Le doy gracias a toda la gente del club “

The 41-year-old coach led the team in 64 games, winning 27, drawing 20 and losing 17.
Velez is third in the league standings, with 36 points, before a round at the end of the league, but he has not yet guaranteed qualification for the Copa Libertadores 2021.
Heinze has previously coached Judy Cruz and Argentinos Juniors, and has not yet won titles in his coaching career.
And Heinzeh was preceded by Gabriel Milito, who announced his departure from the Argentine Estudiantes training after exiting the second round of the Argentine Cup against Deportivo Lavriere, a third-class team.

Estudiantes’ sudden exit from the tournament came after the original time ended in a 1-1 tie and a penalty shoot-out after Javier Mascherano, his former team-mate in Barcelona, missed the last kick.
Estudiantes suffered negative results recently, as the team won only two games from the last 10 games.
It is Melito’s second term with the club headed by Juan Sebastian Veron, the former Argentina, Inter and Manchester United national team.
