On 26 December 2011, Basile returned to the Racing Club for his fourth spell as their coach, taking over from Diego Simeone.
He took charge of two matches, including the clash between England and Argentina in Saint-Étienne, where he is remembered for sending off England's David Beckham for kicking out at Argentina's Diego Simeone after the Argentinian had fouled him.
