Olimpia Extends Contract with Coach Sánchez Through 2027 After Title Win

Olimpia and their Argentine coach Pablo Andrés Sánchez have reached an agreement to extend his contract, securing his tenure with the Paraguayan club until the end of 2027. Sánchez, affectionately known as “Vitamina,” has guided the team, referred to as the Expreso Decano, to significant success since his arrival.

Under Sánchez's leadership, Olimpia clinched the Apertura tournament title and secured a spot in the Copa Sudamericana's round of 16 as group winners. This strong performance motivated the club's management to offer the coach an extended contract. His initial one-year deal began on November 28, 2025.

The extended contract, while running until 2027, includes clauses that allow for financial compensation to Olimpia should Sánchez depart before the contract's expiration, either due to results or a more lucrative offer. In his tenure so far, Sánchez has overseen 29 matches, achieving 20 wins, 5 draws, and 4 losses. Olimpia is set to face the winner of the match between Vasco da Gama and Deportivo Independiente Medellín in the Copa Sudamericana.
