Pablo "Pitu" Barrientos, the current president of the Jorge Newbery club in Comodoro Rivadavia, announced that he will move to Buenos Aires in the coming months and, consequently, will leave his post at the head of the institution. In a radio interview for Cien Punto Uno in Comodoro Rivadavia, the executive stated that this decision implies a change of roles and a possible connection with San Lorenzo. According to what was learned by the Argentine News Agency, Barrientos did not specify the exact date of his departure, but he anticipated that "it won't be long." He explained that this is "a good moment to be there and contribute based on my knowledge." Regarding his continuity as president of Jorge Newbery, known as "El Lobo," he was categorical: "No, obviously that is a topic to discuss." "I'm going to be very sincere with you, I will probably go live for a few months in Buenos Aires and probably I will be somewhere at San Lorenzo," he affirmed with a decisive tone. His departure from the presidency of Newbery is due to the impossibility of maintaining an effective daily management from a distance. Barrientos was asked about rumors of his approach to San Lorenzo. "Obviously not, I could not continue as president because it would be a major disaster, to be traveling all the time and I consider that in day-to-day one has to be present."
