According to Brazilian journalist Guilherme Frossard, Atlético Mineiro is considering Martín Anselmi as a potential replacement for Alexi Stival, commonly known as Cuca, who resigned less than a year into his role.

Reports indicate that discussions with the Argentine coach are progressing, and a deal may be finalized soon.
Anselmi’s latest position was with Porto, where he had a brief tenure from January to June 2025. His time in Portugal was marked by disappointing results and a controversial departure from Cruz Azul. While he had strong performances in Mexico, he did not secure a championship, which became a notable point despite his good league results.

The 39-year-old coach is particularly recognized for his achievements with Independiente del Valle in Ecuador, where he won the Copa Sudamericana, the Recopa Sudamericana, and multiple domestic titles. This period highlighted his ability to build competitive teams and deliver results on the continental stage.

Facing inconsistency over the past season, Atlético Mineiro views Anselmi as a candidate who could inject new energy and adapt swiftly. His diverse experience across Argentina, Ecuador, Mexico, and Portugal could be a significant asset in the Brazilian league.

If confirmed, his appointment would present a considerable challenge at one of Brazil’s leading clubs, known for high expectations and immediate pressure to win. The coming days will be crucial in deciding if Anselmi gets the opportunity to resume his career in South America.
