Former Unión La Calera Coach to Lead Lucas Cepeda at Elche

Martín Anselmi, formerly of Unión La Calera, has arrived in Elche to begin his tenure as the new head coach of the Spanish club. The 40-year-old Argentine coach takes the reins from Eder Sarabia, who successfully guided the team to promotion to Spain's top division and ensured their survival.

Anselmi's appointment marks his first experience managing in the Spanish league. He is set to familiarize himself with the club's facilities, including the Martínez Valero Stadium, and will be formally presented to the media this week. His arrival signals a new chapter for the club, and he will collaborate closely with club owner Christian Bragarnik, general manager Pedro Schinocca, and sporting director Pepe Contreras.

This move is particularly significant for Chilean attacker Lucas Cepeda, who will now play under a coach familiar with Chilean football. Anselmi's previous stint at Unión La Calera provides him with relevant experience as he prepares to finalize squad details and map out the club's preseason schedule.
