Why the Popewho twice said “no” to Boca, would this time agree to lead one of the biggest clubs in the country? “He has everything to win”, they say around them. Furthermore, and this is a key point, you want to be close to your family, especially his nephew Mateo, almost 3 years old. On Monday 20 March the coach was in a box at the Marcelo Alberto Bielsa stadium to watch Newell’s victory against San Lorenzo. And he showed himself as a grandfather pussy. Enjoy, during these hours, your free days at your home in the Jorge Cura neighborhood. And if Rosario was always nearby, the Bombonera is only three hours away by car.

Martino identifies himself a lot with the Rossoneri club, but he knows that there is a coach kidney. Gabriel Heinze himself seemed to give him the blessing Yesterday, when he spoke at a press conference and referred to the question when asked by his colleagues. “The sense of belonging to Newell’s will never be lost because of all the great things he has done here,” said the Gringo. And he added: “It is a personal decision, but he will always be identified with the club for what he has achieved as a player and also as a manager. History is already written and that can never be erased, even if someone wanted to dirty it”.

The economic proposal and the duration of the contract are important details, but for now they would not be an impediment. Since it is an electoral year at Boca, one clause must be taken into account. The technical staff consists of eight members: Jorge Teiler, Norberto Scoponi AND SergioGiovagnoli (field assistants); Manuel Alfaro AND Rodolfo Paladini (physical trainers); Gustavo Pinero (goal coach); Gustavo Dezotti (rival analyst) e Damiano Silvero (video analyst).

It was a busy Wednesday. While Martino studied the proposal that Boca approached him, which would allow him to have a rematch in a big team, Ibarra left a few words in his farewell. And the Black he chose to see the glass as half full. “There are things that could not have been achieved, but the balance is extremely positive. In the eight months that I’ve been there, excluding the stop at the World Cup, it’s been 6 months and every three months I come out as champion”.

His departure was due to several reasons. And there is a sentence from Ibarra himself, after the victory against Olimpo (2-1) in Chaco for the Argentina Cup, which explains Román’s decision: “This is a political year”.

It is true that Román is thinking about December and the elections which promise to be hot. Because beyond the fact that he has repeatedly stated that he would win “85 to 15”, he has made noise inside the announcement that Mauricio Macri will leave the national scene and will compete in the internal Xeneize. The former president, as he was able to find out clarion, does not rule out being the leader. Today he supports Andrés Ibarra, who was secretary during his management at the club and was in charge of the Ministry of Modernization in the PRO government.

Riquelme was clear that Ibarra, who hadn’t found a way around the team, didn’t guarantee him a great season either. In fact, he had just lost two games in a row in the local tournament (against Banfield and Instituto), and there were two other situations that prompted him to cut the thread: the photo with Ref Di Zeo, which went viral last week, and the boos which spread in the Bombonera after the fall (3 to 2) against the Cordoba.

In addition, there is an eloquent image. After the third goal by The gloryAt the start of the second half, Román turned and walked out of the box. All an indication that the Ibarra cycle was over.

Martino’s arrival will be a transfer of pressure for the team. advanced sheet metal Pope.
