The coach will terminate his contract following the results at the start of the Primera Nacional. Marcelo Candia will take over on an interim basis.

Rubén Darío Forestello will no longer be Patronato’s head coach, bringing his second spell at the club to an end. His departure will be finalized through the termination of his contract, which was set to run until the end of 2026. The 2-0 away defeat to Gimnasia y Esgrima de Jujuy was his last match in charge of the team.

The spell comes to a close amid an inconsistent start in the Primera Nacional. In seven matches, Patronato recorded one win, two draws, and four defeats, results that leave them in 17th place in Zone B.

Given this situation, the club’s management moved forward with the coach’s departure and has already chosen an interim replacement. Marcelo Candia will take charge of the first-team squad while the club searches for a new head coach.

Forestello had returned to the club for a second spell, but the results at the start of the tournament brought his stint to an early end.
