América de Cali does not want to make mistakes, which is why it has taken its time to make a firm decision on who will replace Venezuelan César Farías, in a technical direction.
Jorge ‘Polilla’ Da Silva was already technical director of América de Cali in 2017.
Although nothing official has been said regarding it, a source very close to América told El País that “put the signature that ‘Polilla’ will return”, referring to the Uruguayan’s time as a scarlet player in the 1990s, and later as a coach for the red team in the 2027-2018 seasons.
The version was later confirmed by other media, who assured that Da Silva will fulfill his contract with Muaither SC from the second division of Qatar, a relationship that ends in the middle of this year, and will immediately pack his bags to take the reins of one of the biggest the teams in Colombia.

The challenge that Da Silva has with América, in case the team makes it official and no last-minute problems arise, is to take the red team to the first places, make them champions, which is what their big fans demand, and classify them for tournament internationals, which is the exam that the red eleven has stood for several years.
The first half of 2024 was a resounding failure for América, but also one of mistakes on the part of the directors, who, with only a few days left before the start of League I, surprisingly interrupted the process of the young coach Lucas González, and then chose the Venezuelan César Farías .

The hard blow for the Scarlets later materialized with the elimination of the home runs, a situation that caused much discomfort among the managers, who decided to dismiss the Venezuelan coach.
