RECENT NEWS

I haven't been around lately, sorry for the lack of updates.
In the last 2 weeks, some important matters took place.

First, we have Roman back with Boca Junior. Villarreal allowed Riquelme to break his contract, and the CAM is already in Japan preparing for club world cup with his beloved team. It's a rare incident where a player is allowed to go free before end of his contract, and this action might have long term consequences for the club. We shall, however, be thankful that the situation had finally resolved.

Then we had Simeone leaving Estudiante to coach River. A promotion for the young DT obviously, a difficult assignment nevertheless. River had been in knee deep of financial troubles, let's hope el Cholo could turn that around.

FIFA club world cup is going on right now. Boca will play its first match on 12th december (early morning here) and AC Milan the day after. This is why Roman wanted Boca. Boca is paying big bucks for the enganche, better get what the money's worth.
