Fonseca was sacked by Potosí on 13 May 2021, with his club in the penultimate position.[6] On 30 November 2022, he was presented by the Royal Madrid Football Federation as their new head coach of the under-16 category,[7] and won a national tournament with the federation the following April, beating the Catalan Football Federation in the final.[8]

On 6 May 2023, Fonseca returned to Bolivia and replaced compatriot José Aurelio Gay at the helm of Vaca Díez.[9] On 21 July, he was sacked.[10]
