Boca Juniors is looking for a new technical director after the departure of Diego Martínez. Martínez resigned from his position on September 28 after a series of negative results: losing to Belgrano, losing to River Plate, with an alternative lineup, in the Argentine Superclásico in La Bombonera, losing to Racing and elimination in the Copa Sudamericana.
In this context, the Boca board is sounding out different coaches to take on its project, among them Fernando Gago, who currently coaches Chivas de Guadalajara, has been mentioned.
According to a report from Diario Olé, the Argentine coach could activate his exit clause from the Rebaño Sagrado to join the xeneize team. According to this information, since ‘Pintita’ signed with the Mexican club, in December 2023, an option was included, for both the club and the coach, to terminate their relationship.
If Fernando Gago were chosen by Juan Román Riquelme to head the new Boca Juniors project, the coach would have to activate his clause to leave Chivas and Boca would have to put up around 2 million dollars.
The Diario Olé report indicates that the xeneizes could cover this amount without any problem, but that the final decision rests with Riquelme.
After 10 days of the Apertura 2024 tournament of the Liga MX, Gago’s Chivas are in eighth position in the table with 15 points.
In his first tournament at the head of Chivas de Guadalajara, Gago led the red and white team to the semifinals, but lost in this phase against Club América, the hated rival.
