San Lorenzo Names Néstor ‘Pipo’ Gorosito as Head Coach

Gorosito will take charge with only two weeks to prepare before San Lorenzo’s July 17 Copa Argentina match.

Overview

  • The club announced Friday that Néstor ‘Pipo’ Gorosito has been appointed head coach and was presented with his technical staff.
  • Media reports disagree on the contract length, with some outlets citing 18 months and others reporting one year or different end dates, leaving terms unclear.
  • Gorosito’s staff includes Jorge Borelli and Gustavo Zapata as assistants and Sebastián Somoza as physical trainer, and the club released an emotional social video to mark his return.
  • The appointment follows the abrupt exit of Gustavo Álvarez in late June and a failed pursuit of Iker Muniain that collapsed over licensing and regulatory barriers.
  • San Lorenzo faces a compressed preseason ahead of the July 17 Copa Argentina game and is managing transfer activity, notably reported interest from Club León in defender Johan Romaña.
