I don't rule out Miguel Ángel Russo, who has a decisive match this weekend with San Lorenzo. They are not convinced that Gerardo Martino wants to coach. And 'Turco' Mohamed, who is currently employed, has lost ground in consideration," Augusto César reported. Mariano Herrón, who replaced Fernando Gago, is in charge of the squad with the match against Atlético Tucumán in the Copa Argentina on the horizon. However, the big date will be the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States. "Boca Juniors needs a storm pilot today," said the ESPN journalist in his report. Riquelme's idea is to close the deal with the chosen coach this week so that he can lead the first practice next Tuesday, less than a month before the international competition. 📸 LUIS ROBAYO - AFP or licensors
