At this time, the great anticipation at Boca Juniors involves the attentive wait for the appointment of the team's next head coach, who will officially debut in mid-June at the 2025 Club World Cup. According to the latest updates from journalists close to the club from La Ribera, the name of the coach has already been chosen, and the coach in question has also said "Yes." However, the club and the management led by Juan Román Riquelme have decided to keep the negotiations "secret" and not yet reveal the chosen coach. ¡El DT está elegido! ¡El SI, del técnico, ya está!Negociación recontra SECRETA. TIC TAC — Leandro Aguilera (@Tato_Aguilera) May 22, 2025 The flurry of names has been intense and constant since the departure of Fernando Gago was confirmed several weeks ago, after losing in the Superclásico at the Monumental. "Lo viejo funciona, Juan" — Diego Monroig (@MonroigDiego) May 22, 2025 Several names have already been ruled out for different reasons, while now the main candidates are two: Gustavo Quinteros and Miguel Ángel Russo. The latter, currently under contract with San Lorenzo and in the midst of the final stages of the Argentine Apertura tournament with his team in the semifinals, will have to wait for the outcome of this competition to accept a proposal from the Xeneize. This is why there is mainly speculation about his name, hence the secrecy of these negotiations. 📸 ALEJANDRO PAGNI - AFP or licensors

This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇪🇸 here. Boca Juniors is racing against the clock to hire a new coach ahead of their participation in the 2025 FIFA Club World the tough elimination against Independiente in the quarterfinals of the 2025 Torneo Apertura of the Liga Profesional de Fútbol (LPF), the Boca Juniors squad has entered a week-long break to calm the waters amidst a football crisis that seems to have no end. According to ESPN Argentina journalist Augusto César, the 'Xeneize' players will return to work next Tuesday, May 27, to prepare for their upcoming commitments. Juan Román Riquelme and the Football Council are working against the clock to close the hiring of a new coach. They want someone with "experience" and a high profile. ¿VUELVE MIGUELO AL XENEIZE?@Augustocesar22 nos trae los candidatos a ser el nuevo DT de Boca. ¿Será alguno de estos tres nombres?📺 No te pierdas #ESPNF90 en vivo por #DisneyPlus — ESPN Argentina (@ESPNArgentina) May 21, 2025 "Given the timing, Gustavo Quintero, who is currently free in Europe, is waiting for Boca to define his future. 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

Before the match between Roma and Porto to determine the advancement to the Europa League round of 16, the midfielder was asked about the big rumor of his return to the Xeneize this summer and he was very clear."I never implied that I was returning to Boca now. I have always been quite clear in that regard. In November, when I had the opportunity to say it, I was very clear: I have a contract that I have to respect." Beyond all the controversy that arose at the time after his rejection, Juan Román Riquelme and the blue and gold football council will start talks again in March to make his return happen. In the Italian capital team, he has a contract until June 30 and, while waiting for his decision, Boca will present him with a new offer. 📸 Alessandro Sabattini - 2025 Getty Images
