The president assured that the institution “did everything” so that the goalkeeper returns to the Academy. In turn, he said that he will keep the doors of the club closed “at least for a long time.”
Boca ended the transfer market with a bombshell: it closed the hiring of Sergio Romero, a historic goalkeeper for the Argentine National Team. A bombshell for both Xeneize and Racing, the club where Chiquito made his debut in the First Division. Y Víctor Blanco, president of the Avellaneda club, made his anger clear when he saw him sign with Xeneize…
The president assured that the Academy “did everything to bring him back” and made clear his anger at his arrival at Xeneize. “It was decided by Boca. We opened the doors for him to train, we named a court after him. It hurts me to see him with Boca’s. Racing is a very big club.” said in an interview with Radio The Network.
In turn, Blanco said that he was not going to communicate with the goalkeeper and that he even stated that the doors of the club will be closed. “I’m not telling you forever, but at least for a long time, yes”, launched later, in dialogue with Radio Continental.
On the other hand, they consulted him about the strong phrase of Romero, who assured that “Boca is the biggest club in Argentina.” Something that, as expected, White did not like. “Of course I have the same feeling of anger from the fans, Romero’s words were unfortunate, they were not necessary”, express.
Beyond the annoyance for not being able to finalize the arrival of Chiquito, he explained that with the coaching staff and manager Rubén Capria they considered that they did not believe that “we had to go look for a goalkeeper” and that, in addition, they thought “that Romero was leaving to Europe”. And he added: “Today the Racing arch is covered, I don’t know if (Gabriel) Arias or (Gastón) Gómez They are better but they are at the same level as Romero”.
Statements Sergio Romero:
Finally, Víctor Blanco made it clear that he does not even want to imagine Chiquito in the Cylinder next Sunday, in the duel between Racing and Boca for date 13 of the Professional League: “I wouldn’t really like him to go out on the pitch on Sunday and play against Racing, It shocks me a little to see him with another shirt but he is a professional”.
mouth vs. Racing, what’s coming: what Romero said
“I’m a professional. I’m a Racing fan, but football is a job. And today I owe it to Boca and I’ll do everything so that Boca does well. I have to defend these colors. If I have to play, I will defend these colors”, expressed Chiquito Romero in his presentation conference. And he added:” This is a job and when this club is presented it is difficult to say no. Boca introduced himself and I said yes. If it was Racing I would have said yes, but it never came.”
