Carlos Tevez was discharged this Wednesday after spending Tuesday night hospitalized at the La Trinidad Sanatorium (Thames headquarters) in San Isidro due to severe chest pain. Independiente was calm and announced on its social networks that the team coach finished his medical studies, will return home to rest and will return to training tomorrow.
After his hospitalization, after 11 a.m. on Wednesday, the Rojo coach left for his home in a black van. Last night, the Apache was kept under observation in the sanatorium as a precaution. After the medical reports did not show any coronary complications, Carlitos was discharged and will have a day of rest before returning to his usual duties at Independiente.
“Carlos Tevez finished the medical studies and was discharged. He will return home to rest and will return to training tomorrow,” they reported from the Avellaneda entity on their official networks.
“Laboratory studies were performed and they were good. “On guard they will be repeated in a few hours,” sources close to the 40-year-old former player told Infobae yesterday when it was unknown if Tevez was going to remain under the care of doctors at the clinic for greater control.

However, after hours, they confided to this medium that Carlitos “will be admitted to the coronary unit”, although it would not be for anything serious but to perform complementary studies. The same source indicated that the technical director is going through a state of stress and high pressure as a result of the moment he has to go through at the club and they ruled out that it is something cardiac. “They will also expand studies,” they stated.
Likewise, from the Avellaneda club they also brought peace of mind and through a statement indicated that they will continue to undergo different routine medical checkups: “Our coach, Carlos Tevez, was admitted to the Sanatorio La Trinidad de San Isidro with chest pain. They carried out the corresponding studies and they were satisfactory. Tomorrow it will continue with a series of exams scheduled in advance as part of a general check-up that is usually carried out.”
And in response to the disclosure of the information that Apache would be hospitalized, the Avellaneda team added: “Carlos Tevez will be hospitalized as a precaution until the corresponding studies are completed.”
For his part, the entertainment journalist, Gustavo Méndez, added more information on his Instagram profile. “The Independiente technician is being treated in the Pain Unit sector of the clinic.

The elimination of Independiente in the League Cup, after the 2-2 home draw against Talleres de Córdoba that deprived them of the quarterfinals, left Carlos Tevez in a very uncomfortable position, who suspended that press conference. After a meeting with the main managers, the Apache resumed the practices, destroying any version of the start. However, the weather is not the best.
The coach has a contract with the Avellaneda club until December 2026, the date on which the management of the current leadership ends. Carlitos achieved the permanence of the team when he took over last year in a difficult situation. But despite sporadic victories and promising starts as occurred in this League Cup, once again the illusion came a blow as a result of irregularity with 6 wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats in 14 dates of the first phase.
The defeat in the classic also had a deep impact since it was a match played at home and at that moment the patience of the public began to run out, whose last card was subject to qualification for the quarterfinals. But faced with a new frustration and the way in which it occurred, with the advantage in the result and the numerical superiority, the implosion occurred.
However, Tevez preferred to remain silent after the last match and left the stadium with one of his daughters with an angry face due to not being able to meet the goal of getting into the top eight and trying to fight for a national title. something that the Avellaneda team has not achieved for 22 years, with the 2002 Apertura Tournament. In 2010 and 2017 they won the Copa Sudamericana and in 2018 the Suruga Bank.
For his part, Carlitos received strong support from the president of Rojo, Néstor Grindetti. “I have a great appreciation for Tevez, things didn’t work out, that’s how it is, it’s obvious, but I like to think a lot from a strategic point of view, from the long term and I think that here we have a project in Independiente that is really very important” .
In the interview he gave with the La Nación+ channel, the highest authority of Rojo analyzed: “If one sees the number of points that, with the leadership of Tevez, Independiente has obtained in the two championships since it has been there, we are really in the first three places. I am in favor of Tevez continuing to accompany us. I spoke with Tevez, obviously we were all beaten up. A game like what it was, and how the result turned out, hit us all, him too, the entire coaching staff and the boys. Today I spoke to him again, he trained the team, he told me that he was going to continue training all week.”
Since taking over as coach of Independiente in August 2023, Tevez has led the team in 29 games and has a total of 13 wins, 11 draws and 5 losses. So far he has scored 44.82 percent of the points. The team was once again out of the League Cup, but continues ahead in the Argentine Cup where in the round of 16 they will play against Juventud Unida, who eliminated Deportivo Maipú. Meanwhile, the start of the Professional League is scheduled for the weekend of May 12, again against Talleres de Córdoba and also at home.
