Marcelo Tinelli has undergone a radical restyling. Accustomed to wearing brown hair, when the Argentine national team won the World Cup in Qatar, he and his youngest son Lolo kept their promise: they resorted to dyeing to show off the Argentine flag in their hair.

Now, before going to spend the end of the year holidays in Punta del Este, Uruguay, the pilot has opted for platinum hair.

In dialogue with Ángel De Brito, live, in THEY (America, aged 20), as soon as he got out of the hairdresser’s, Tinelli unveiled the second part of the promise made to Argentina to win the World Cup.

Brutal sincerity, De Brito began by telling Tinelli how little he liked his look with the Argentine flag in his hair. “YI knew you’d tell me, that the palace came from the beginning“The driver laughed.

And he clarified: “But with Lorenzo (the youngest son, fruit of his relationship with Guillermina Valdés), in Qatar, we had agreed that we would have an Argentine flag in his hair. As soon as we arrived, we did. After five days with the flag, I wanted to wear this color (blonde) and I consented”.

Subsequently, Marcelo unveiled another of the promises he made in Qatar and which he will keep next February, when he returns from vacation. “The second part of the promise is the chest tattoo -She said-. He will have a colored side: the Argentine flag. And on the other the face of Diego (Maradona) and that of Leo (Lionel Messi).”

“Okay because always They say that ‘Marcelo loves Messi more than Maradona’…“, Ángel threw him a stick. “But no, if Maradona played with me, it was planned… You’re a spike. I’ve never heard of it… You’ll be the first to say it”.

Tinelli: “I would never take a weight from San Lorenzo, I feel as if I gave it life”

Then the driver THEY He asked Marcelo Tinelli how he takes criticism: “Criticisms that have to do with San Lorenzo, with politics, with TV… which of those bullets suits you best?”

“football is very thankless -He answered-. I feel like I brought San Lorenz to lifeor. When there are people who say ’empty in San Lorenzo…” For a person who put what I put in San Lorenzo!”.

“With what I’ve done for San Lorenzo, and not only in these last 10 years in which I’ve been leader, but since ’95, when I helped San Lorenzo become champions… The publicity I’ve done in my San Lorenzo program is priceless… And what I’ve invested from my own pocket in the club!” He added.

“Have you lost any money?” De Brito wanted to know. “Yes of course. I put in a lot of money, a lot of moneyHe then indicated, “I could not continue as club president because it was not compatible with my job. I had to choose. And at that moment, fIt was painful for someone to come and say ‘This dish rack, he stole this one’…“.

Strong, Marcelo said: “I would never, ever touch a weight of the club that I love. I never got into football to gain weight. I would never take a peso from San Lorenzo, please! I don’t need it nor have I ever needed it“.

Tinelli, on his participation in the Table of Hunger

De Brito asked Tinelli how he takes the criticisms made of him for his participation in the hunger table which President Alberto Fernández had convened at the time.

“It’s very easy to call someone a Kirchnerista because they will collaborate on the Hunger Table. When in the previous government I collaborated with Carolina Stanley and María Eugenia Vidal, and we went to schools and cafeterias, they never told me ‘Hey, look: yellow, PRO , macrista’. No one has ever said anything to me. But in this case, they call me a Kirchnerist“.

Subsequently, Tinelli specified: “If there’s one person who doesn’t love me, it’s Cristina Kirchnerbecause she was half angry about the imitation that Martín Bossi did (of her), because the shoes were big… What do I know…».

​“I was in a meeting at the hunger table and then I never went”, he added. That day, when they asked me what I wanted to do, I said one specific thing. Thanks to the Mesa del Hambre, we have built seven water wells for Wichi communities of Salta. I paid for two out of my own pocket. And for the other five, I have business friends. I think it’s wonderful.”
