On the afternoon of this Tuesday, the Boca Football Council, with Juan Roman riquelme at the helm, made a renewal offer to Agostino Rossi, which he and his representative considered insufficient. The failure to agree on the numbers of the next contract blocked the negotiations and the representative went out to complain publicly about the situation, By installing the doubt, will the Boca goalkeeper be canceled for not having renewed with Xeneize?
The team that leads Hugo Ibarra will face Platense this Saturday night at the Bombonera. And there was the possibility that Javier García was the starting goalkeeper, due to the contractual conflict that Rossi claims. This morning, however, Rossi trained for the starting eleven.
The doorman arrived after 8 am driving his truck, surprisingly fast on the way the internal streets of La Boca surrounding the Alberto J. Armando stadium. This was recorded on video by a TyC Sports camera that was stationed at the scene.
But in purely football terms, the 26-year-old goalkeeper then appeared safe for the headlines, which would have brought some calm after what has been a day marked by controversy, with cross-statements and figures that have generated controversy. Of course, it remains to be known what the coach will define as the days go by.
The 11th that Ibarra stopped thinking about Vicente López’s team was made up of Rossi and 10 other players: Advíncula, Zambrano, Roncaglia, Sández; Pol Fernandez, Varela and Ramirez; Romero in connection and the couple Villa and Vázquez in attack.
What will happen to Rossi in Boca
Although Rossi’s contract expires in the middle of next year, and from 1 January he can negotiate with any club, the idea of the management is to think of some variations if the continuity of the former Lanús is not fixed. And the dance of names will not be long in appearing.
Everything seems to indicate that Rossi and Boca’s paths will continue separately from July next year. The statements of President Jorge Amor Ameal and the response of the representative of 1, did nothing but add fuel to the fire.
“What he asks of Boca, nobody in Argentine football can pay”, warned Ameal. And he added: “Boca does not shift a single weight of what is offered to Agustín Rossi. We will meet with the Council to define whether Rossi will continue to save ”.
The reply from Rossi’s representative
Miguel González, Agustín Rossi coach, fueled the fire. In an interview with “Sacá del Medio” on continental radio, he clarified several points. As if to insinuate that he will not go back, González warned: “Rossi wanted to continue in Boca”. In turn, he made it clear that the club never intended to negotiate.
“Boca don’t want to negotiate with Agustín Rossi. They say they offer two apartments in Puerto Madero when they are two vacant lots, “Miguel González launched. In addition, he revealed the salary the concierge currently receives.” What he earns in Boca is not enough to live on. Do you think that one million pesos a month is enough for him? “, He assured him.
He also denied rumors that the 26-year-old goalkeeper was the best-paid of the squad and challenged the leaders. “Let Boca publish the offer they made to Agustín on television,” he said.
Moreover, he did not hide his anger at the treatment given to the management: “They do not let you negotiate anything, they impose everything on you.”
And he said he has a feeling that Rossi will not save more in Hugo Ibarra’s team. “I got the impression that Boca had decided not to cut anymore,” he revealed.
