Rubén Darío Insua is returning to San Lorenzo for a third spell, and his first official test will come next Sunday against Independiente. The agreement is closed, and the coach arrives after San Lorenzo’s 1-0 victory over Talleres at the Nuevo Gasómetro, where Alexis Cuello scored and Walter Perazzo took charge on an interim basis.

I did not expect to return so quickly. Two and a half years have passed. I had to wait longer last time. I am happy to be back at the club.

· Rubén Darío InsuaInsua discussed his return to San Lorenzo after leaving the club two and a half years earlier.

Insua said he expected to finalize the agreement after one last conversation. He spoke to reporters after arriving at Ezeiza Airport from Miami and acknowledged that he had not expected to return so soon after leaving the club. “I did not expect to return so quickly. Two and a half years have passed. I had to wait longer last time,” he said. “I am happy to be back at the club.”

The team deserved to win yesterday. It was a good match, we were superior, and that is no small thing.

· Rubén Darío InsuaHe assessed San Lorenzo’s 1-0 victory over Talleres.

The coach, who most recently managed Barracas Central, followed San Lorenzo’s performance against Talleres and praised the team’s display. “The team deserved to win yesterday. It was a good match, we were superior, and that is no small thing,” he said. He declined to commit to a fixed tactical system, stressing that the players’ characteristics would determine his approach. “The system depends on the players’ characteristics. The team played with a back five and yesterday with four,” Insua said.

Insua also avoided comparing his new spell with his previous period at the club, which ran from 2022 to 2024. He said each stage required its own assessment and daily work. With only one competition remaining and roughly three months left in the season, he expects longer working weeks to get to know the squad and improve its performance. “What I can guarantee is that we will work hard and devote all the time necessary to the team’s growth,” he told San Lorenzo supporters.
