Marcelo Tinelli surprised him last May by announcing his request for a license as president of San Lorenzo.
In the midst of a family problem and about to launch a new season of his TV show, the driver and businessman collected criticism from the fans and members of the Boedo club, since the club was not going through its best moment from a sporting point of view .
His place was taken by the first vice president, Horacio Arreceygor, who took the reins of a San Lorenzo, who not only changed coach, but also dispensed with two of his two figures, the twin twins Oscar and Angel Romero.
Five months after his temporary departure, Tinelli has already warned that he will take the reins of the club again.
He did so in an interview on the TN news channel.
“I have leave until May next year and I will surely return.
My dream is to start designing the stadium on Avenida La Plata and have a team that fights for the first places, ”said who also officiates as head of the Professional Soccer League.

Tinelli, who acknowledged being away from the day to day of San Lorenzo, disagreed with the departure of the Paraguayan footballers.
"I did not expect the Romero brothers' departure to happen the way it did. I have an excellent relationship with both of them. I personally brought them and did a very hard job so that they were both part of the squad. The reality is that they were not. I liked that they left, I would have loved them to stay, "said Cabezón, marking differences with the current management of the Boedo club.
And he deepened: "I was not in the day-to-day of their departure and I preferred not to find out because I wanted them to continue. They seem to me to be two first-level players, with great hierarchy and beyond some inconvenience in the dressing room, I think they hierarchized the squad and that's why I didn't like them leaving. "
On the other hand, Tinelli praised Paolo Montero, the current coach of San Lorenzo.
"I like him. He is a coach with personality and can be good for this moment in which you have to give place to the boys of lower grades and accompany them with experienced players," he considered.

In addition, the businessman and driver evaluated the reality of Argentine football, which is experiencing a major crisis after the coronavirus pandemic that paralyzed the economy.
"Argentine football is going through an underfunding crisis that affects all clubs. In fact, San Lorenzo lost 10,000 members during the pandemic and that made us underfunded. An ant job is being done to recover them and it is not easy in this context, "he described.
In that sense, he put San Lorenzo as an example: "We were lucky enough to sell Matías Palacios and Adolfo Gaich, two important players and that gave us support to bring important players like Franco Di Santo and the brothers Oscar and Ángel Romeros, who They are the quality players that a team like San Lorenzo must have. It is true that this type of operation often causes a club to be underfunded. Football is not a thing of spending only what you have. you defund at a football level and you don't invest, it's like you're never going to be able to grow. "
And he closed: "All the clubs in Argentina are underfunded and that is why from the Professional League we are trying to impose financial fair play. It is something that must be solved."
