In late 2008, it was announced that he would undergo surgery. Subsequently, the Qatar FA ended their cooperation with Fossati, who supposedly needed too long to recover from surgery. In 2009 Fossati signed with LDU Quito from Ecuador to manage the team for the second time. He helped LDU Quito win the Recopa Sudamericana 2009 matches against Sport Club Internacional de Porto Alegre . LDU Quito won both games of the Recopa 1-0 and 3-0, respectively. This gave LDU Quito their second international title. After that he led them in the Peace Cup 2009 held in Spain. LDU were drawn in Group B, along with Spanish giants Real Madrid and Saudi outfit Al-Ittihad[4]. Although LDU won defeated Al-Ittihad 3-1 in their first game, they bowed out of the competition after losing 2-4 to Real Madrid, a match which saw Cristiano Ronaldo's first goal for Real Madrid. After Internacional and Mário Sergio parted ways, as per their previous agreement, the Brazilian club turned to the foreign market in South America and reached a deal with Fossati. The Uruguayan is fluent in Portuguese and lived in Brazil during the 1980s. On 13 December 2009 the Uruguayan coach has left LDU Quito to join Internacional Porto Alegre for one year.
