Sergio Romero, the national team goalkeeper that Juan Román Riquelme wants, the day he saved two penalties against the Netherlands in the semifinal of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Boca was an explosion on Tuesday when the renewal of Agustín Rossi did not prosper in the second meeting, and the Football Council ended the talks, so he will leave the club if he does it as a free agent on the 30th of June 2023. The news brought a crossfire and, therefore, more upheaval.
However, just as sometimes (not to say many) it fails, the people of Juan Román Riquelme also know how to work in silence. Thoroughly. As a result of the conflict, the urgency to act meant that only on two afternoons did he have face-to-face contact with his possible replacement: Sergio "Chiquito" Romero was at the Ezeiza property on Thursday afternoon, and the negotiation for his replacement was activated. He was landing at the seize club.
The Rossi case and the dangerous recipe of the Boca Football Council impose without negotiating
Eight days ago, when the bomb in Boca had not yet detonated, and it was still expected -with some optimism- that Rossi would answer the Council's proposal in the affirmative, Romero was close to Boca. Still, at a distance: he trained at Racing facilities, a club from which it arose.
The rumour has been installed for weeks. One could even say that the goalkeeper, now 35 years old, has always been linked to Boca's wishes for years. Then, when contacting the national media from Avellaneda, the journalistic curiosity quickly jumped to know if he had got the xeneize entity amid his search to find a new club in his career.
