The legend who was a coach at Gimnasia had been hospitalised at the start of November, days after celebrating the landmark birthday, after complaining of low spirits and fatigue.

Tests at the La Plata clinic revealed a blood clot on the brain, which doctors later revealed was operated on successfully.

However, on Wednesday morning he suffered cardiac arrest, and paramedics at the scene failed to revive him.
