After working with Suárez at Junior, Osma returned to managerial duties in February 2021, with Honduran side Águila.[5] He later returned to Ecuador to take over América de Quito in June of that year,[6] before rejoining his first club Bucaramanga on 24 February 2022, in the place of resigned Néstor Craviotto.[7] He was sacked from Atlético Bucaramanga on 10 October.[8]
