More from Juan Riquelme on Carlos Tevez

“When we arrived at the club, remember that you thought that Carlitos was not going to continue. I separate things. I have them clear. I love the club, idols have to be taken care of”highlighted Riquelme and added: “I wasn’t playing with the latest coaches. All journalism thought that he was not going to continue with us. They said that in December he finished his contract and had until June. I sat down with him and told him that he couldn’t leave like this, that he had to go playing ball.”

“I was convinced that I could do it. He was lucky because every two weeks he was able to have the biggest birthday, with this stadium. He made us Boca fans very happy. We had the illusion that he will continue with us ”, Roman said.

The contact between Tevez and Rosario Central

Carlos Tevez had assured in an interview with Alejandro Fantino that he was going to direct and the first opportunity appeared in the last few hours.

Although the meeting was aimed at discussing the future of several players, Christian Bragarnik threw on the table the possibility that Tevez arrives at Rosario Central. Later, Ricardo Carloni and Raúl Gordillo, vice and technical secretary of the Scoundrel, held a meeting with Apache and his representative, Adrián Ruocco.

As it turned out, the meeting was positive: they advanced in the soccer project and even talked about possible reinforcements (so far only Francis Mac Allister has arrived).

The idea is that the Xeneize idol gives a yes or no answer this Thursday morning, a day in which it would be defined who will be the next Canalla coach. The ex-soccer player will team up with Carlos Retegui and his brothers will also be present in the working group.
