Beautiful and famous women, the B side of football and the secrets of a man who was right next to a figure as massive as Diego Maradona are some of the condiments of the series Coppola, the representative, based on the experiences of Guillermo Coppola. And if some of his scenes are giving a lot of talk, other more unknown ones could predict many chapters for the biopic in the future.

The former manager’s visit to LAM revived the love story that he He lived with María Fernanda Callejón, a clandestine romance that, in addition to heartbreak, had a car accident for which the ex-vedette had to be hospitalized. It was Marixa Balli who remembered what the actress experienced when they were both very friends.

“We came from Dorado. A couple was coming behind us, my preparers. It was all meters from home. A bus from the Rosedal appears without lights, hits sideways and hits. He hit me with the mirror, blood on my forehead and blood on my eyebrow,” recalled the former representative in the Ángel de Brito cycle. “They took Fernanda to her house, she was a little sore, but fine. She did not have her legs in casts, nor did she have to be fed as you said yesterday, Marixa,” the former manager said, provoking a discussion with the panelist.

The former dancer assured that she had taken care of María Fernanda during her hospitalization at the Italian Hospital. “I did it, I cleaned her when she relieved herself. You didn’t go to Italian. She was rehearsing and I had to feed her,” she recalled, a tense moment that was corrected a day later when Marixa said that the businessman had apologized and had recognized her mistake. While María Fernanda Callejón, upset by reminding her of that romance, was emphatic. “Let them tell it however they want. I don’t care,” she launched, in El Debate del Bailando.

Before being the representative of more than 200 soccer players, Guillermo worked in a bank. From there, far from the glamor he would know later, he launched the career for which he became famous. “Back in ’74 I was a restless person who really liked football. He worked at the Argentine Federal Bank and one of his clients was Naum Zalcman, who, among other things, was an intermediary, following in the footsteps of Don Félix Latrónico, the pioneer. They were dedicated to that: buying and selling players,” he recalled, about that first job that opened the doors to the world where he would shine some time later.

But although his brightest star was the Ten, among the players whose careers he managed there are football glories. The first was the idol of soccer and the ’78 national team, Alberto Tarantini. “We were in 1975 and one day the general manager of the bank sent for me, because he knew that I was a Boca fan. He was meeting with Vicente Pernía, who wanted to become a client and his intention was that I could advise him. I opened an account for him and a few days later he took me to La Candela, the mythical meeting place in Boca, where I began to go frequently. One day Tarantini’s father approached me, in the middle of practice: ‘Aren’t you the one who participated in the transfer of Santos? Because I would like him to take care of my son’s things,’” Guillermo said about how he began to represent the Rabbit.

However, Guillermo Coppola’s great love was Diego Maradona. On many occasions he had to clarify that their relationship did not become sexual, but that the passion between them was real. “We were in the camp playing the ’85 qualifiers, which was difficult for us and we beat Peru at the last minute. We were at the rally and Diego told us ‘don’t you have someone to represent me?’ ‘Of course, we have the best of all. Guillermo Coppola ‘”, Oscar Ruggeri told with Guillermo next to him in the cycle El Día en 30 (Somos Rosario), about how he ended up uniting the destinies of both.

Another of the lesser-known moments was told by Coppola himself about the day Diego married Claudia Villafañe. Shortly after saying “yes”, in what is considered one of the largest and most lavish weddings of celebrities in our country, Ten wanted to “locate” a neighbor from his neighborhood.

“Diego and Claudia were getting married. We left the Sheraton heading to Luna Park. I was in communication with Marcos Franchi. Upon arriving in Córdoba, Diego says ‘doblá’. We cross Gascón, State of Israel… Ask to turn at Sanabria. ‘Stop at Castañares 345, knock and ask for Don José,’” he recalled. “The man appeared: slippers, light blue pajamas… Diego looked out the window and said: ‘Don José, here I am with the woman you said was a p… because she was going with me and my representative to Germany to sign the contract with Cougar. Look carefully: now she is my wife.’ He was the neighborhood hardware store owner who had gone crazy and Diego put him in his place,” he said, smiling.
