Summary
The campaign is best remembered by the high-expected return to the club of 1986 World Cup champion Diego Maradona after 14 seasons.[1] Several players were transferred in included Rosario Central left winger Kily González almost signed by Real Madrid,[2] Darío Scotto, Claudio Paul Caniggia,[3] Arturo Yorno and loans out ended for Raul Peralta, Roberto Cabañas y Blas Giunta.
On 3 December 1995 Mauricio Macri won his first Chairman's election with 7,000 votes and became new club President [4] In Torneo Apertura 1995 the squad finished on 4th spot after several rounds being leader losing the title over the last 5 matches.
Marzolini was sacked and Macri signed Carlos Bilardo during December 1995,[5] and reinforced the squad with midfielders Juan Sebastián Verón[6] from Estudiantes La Plata and José Horacio Basualdo. The Clausura is best remembered by the bizarre fact of 5 penalties missed by Maradona.[7] The club finished on 5th spot with 33 points, seven below of champions Carlos Bianchi' Velez Sarsfield.
