Ahead of his presentation, Muniain spoke to reporters about his choice.

He said,  "I follow the Argentine championship a lot and I had already seen several San Lorenzo matches, I know their fans and when this opportunity presented itself I was very happy. It was what I was looking for.

"The love for Argentine football comes from the passion for football. Since I was a child I have loved football and I feel that here, in Argentina, the passion for football is much greater than elsewhere. Putting all these factors together makes me happy: playing football and living it so intensely will be fantastic."
