Overview

• The club confirmed Orfila’s exit in an institutional statement on social media and thanked him and his staff for their work.
• Fernando Zaniratto will take over on an interim basis starting Tuesday, with the team set to face Estudiantes later this week.
• Orfila’s record was four wins, one draw and seven defeats in 12 matches, a return of roughly 36% that mirrors predecessor Diego Flores.
• Local reporting says locker-room tensions and the board’s waning backing—sharpened by wins from relegation rivals Aldosivi and Sarmiento—pushed the move.
