Racing Extends Gustavo Costas Through 2028 to Cement Long-Term Project

Club leaders cast the move as continuity aimed at a stronger 2026 Sudamericana.

Overview

  • Racing officially confirmed a three-year extension for Gustavo Costas that keeps him under contract through the end of 2028.
  • The deal aligns with president Diego Milito’s current term, underscoring coordination between the board and technical staff.
  • Costas said he is happy to stay and reiterated his goal of keeping the team at the highest competitive level.
  • Milito praised the coach’s work and presented the renewal as consolidation of a project that included the 2024 Copa Sudamericana title and a 2025 season of near-misses.
  • With Libertadores 2026 out of reach after a fifth-place finish, Racing prepares for the Sudamericana with expected squad changes: Luciano Vietto set to depart, Agustín Almendra likely bound for Mexico, and Baltasar Rodríguez returning from Inter Miami.
