This Monday a new preseason began for the different youth divisions of San Lorenzo.

San Lorenzo closed the third reinforcement in this transfer market
During this first session, those who welcomed the youth players were the directors Guillermo Pérez, president of the Subcommittee, Armando Muzoglu, member of the Board of Directors, and Marcelo Romano, Coordinator of the lower divisions. However, they were not alone as they also introduced a new person who will be close to the youth team on a day-to-day basis, such as Juan Ignacio Mercier.
El Pichi, who was a key piece in the Patón Bauza team that became champion of the Copa Libertadores in 2014 for the first time in history, will have a position in the Youth Soccer structure in which he will contribute all his experience and wisdom for the growth of the boys. In addition, he will act as a link between the lower divisions and the First Division led by Damián Ayude, trying to recommend the best projects.
It is worth noting that Pichi Mercier had been accompanying Sergio Costantino in the elections that were held in December 2023 in which Marcelo Moretti ended up winning. Although he was not on the list, he accompanied him along with Sebastián Torrico (he was as Second Vice President), and today he returns to the club eight years after his departure in mid-2018 after having played 184 games. in which he scored three goals and won three titles.
