The generation of players of this club of the 1980s is golden for the “red bugs” - the team has never won significant trophies both in Argentina and in the international arena, while remaining a traditional provider of personnel for stronger clubs due to its magnificent academy - and among these players Batista played one of the key roles. After Batista had already become the world champion in the national team, he moved to River Plate and won another national championship in the 1989/90 season. He ended his career as a Batista in 1999 at the All Boys Club.
