Elections at Boca: Riquelme, Angelici, Macri, Pergolini and Tevez, what is the club’s political scenario for December?

Nine long months after the Boca elections (they will be, by statute, in the first half of December) some political players have begun to move. Era Daniele Angelicithe former president who lost club leadership and political space in the last election after 24 years, which has moved the climate much more for the opposition than for the ruling party. Why?

“My stage at Boca is over for the moment. Yes, I will accompany the opposition candidate. With my vote or whatever they ask me. I hope the opposition unifies a candidate give the partner another alternative”, was the expression of will of the man who led the club for 8 years (he won 6 local championships) and made himself noticed in a broad opposition front, with many surnames , but without any shiny head.

The rapid decision of Mauricio Macri to impose Andres Ibarra (former Boca general secretary) as its candidate to compete in the elections has generated divisions in several spheres that strive to emerge as the face facing Riquelme and company in December. For this reason, Angelici’s voice (aware that his figure still generates controversy) was very similar to an appeal to unify the blocks. Something that is far from happening today.

Ibarra’s space added up quickly Francis Quintana (key bishop in the assembly of Macri in the Judiciary) already Roic Ferrari, who served as Angelici’s vice president in his second term but resigned because he was estranged from several policies and many DC peers. That, in “angelicism” was understood as a betrayal. This is why Angelici has given everyone the freedom to build on their own: even today there are surnames such as Crespi, Pompilio, London and Carlos Aguas who have not aligned themselves with any space.

The other presidential candidate at the moment is George Royal, a communication entrepreneur from Mendoza who has brought together partners from Boca and who has added the historic Boca La Causa group to his space. work with him Diego Lajst and tries to expand its space with a project that will be presented in a month: they want to build a new stadium for Boca on Demarchi island. It will be their take-off platform as they look to establish themselves as opponents not just in the short term but in the future, with new faces in club politics.

Another statement by Angelici that generated noise was the confirmation that Mauricio Macri will not be a candidate, something that has been considered in recent weeks.

“Macri will not run. Perhaps you are willing to accompany, perhaps on the list, to give your support. You also have to see what he’s going to do with his future. He’s a friend of mine, he’s our reference and Boca has given him so many joys, so it would be very nice if he gets back in the game.”convicted Angelici in statements to TN.

It was a week in which he too returned to the scene Charles Tevez to whitewash that he will not play as a manager in the election. There was even a chat between Apache and Angelici in the last few hours in which the former footballer apologized for having harshly criticized the cycles of Barros Schelotto and Alfaro, all under the guidance of Angelici, with whom you share a friendship.

With Angelici and Macri excluded, and without Tevez as a figure to accompany, the opposition continues to look for someone who can also agree with Riquelme. So far the feints of Mario Pergolini I’m from stories of Instagram (the opposition has measured its image and has great knowledge but little intention to vote) and other historical surnames of weight such as Jose Beraldi They are waiting where to deposit their aspirations.

For this reason, the ruling party moves with caution. Far from the 95-5 that raises the vice president like chicana and challenge but waiting for the external movements to have an internal reaction. After all, it will be a year of agreements, alliances and also of future projects. Could it be that Riquelme is thinking about his personal project for the Bombonera? While in Boca Predio de Ezeiza they plan football, the electoral climate is starting to heat up.
