BIO: In 1966, after being specifically recruited by Pizzuti, he returned to *La Academia* to become the key playmaker of the legendary “José’s Team” (*Equipo de José*). He brought his experience, composure, and leadership to their title-winning campaigns—the 1966 championship, the 1967 Copa Libertadores, and the 1967 Intercontinental Cup—making that year the most glorious in the club’s history and establishing himself as the club’s greatest idol. He was essentially a coach on the field.
He ultimately retired at the club in 1968, having played a total of 139 matches and scored 44 goals across his two stints.
COA: Available to the auction winner.
