ST JAMES, Jamaica — Argentine Javier Marcelo Ainstein was recently named as head coach of Montego Bay United for the 2026-27 season, days after he resigned from fellow JPL team Waterhouse “with immediate effect”. Ainstein had taken over at Waterhouse in January following the firing of long-time coach Marcel Gayle and had guided them to the Jamaica Premier League play-offs where they lost in the quarterfinals to Cavalier SC. Ainstein is the second Argentine to take up the reins at MBU in the last two years after Rodolfo Zapata spent part of the 2024-25 season at the club before he was replaced by Paul ‘Tegat’ Davis.
