In the absence of official confirmation, River reached a verbal agreement with the Austin of the MLS so that Thomas Pochettino He joins, on a loan for a year and a half, the team led by Marcelo Gallardo for 2022.
That is why by means of the trigger we will review cases that meet this requirement: a player from Boca who happens to play in the “Millionaire”, classic rivals of a lifetime in Argentina. We go there with the most significant cases, remembering that Rubén Galletti, Oscar Trossero, Alberto Tarantini, Carlos Randazzo, Jonathan Fabbro, Nicolás Bertolo and Bruno Urribarri are also part of it.
Although all his stage of Youth Divisions was carried out in Los Andes, where he made his debut in the First Division, Maidana arrived very young in Boca (2005) and there he finished training as a footballer until he made his official debut the following year. In River, on the contrary, he became a great symbol, being a benchmark in the club and having returned after a stint in Mexico to continue under the mandate of Gallardo.
Of Xeneize origin, the “Witch” was transferred to River after being consecrated in the 1989 Super Cup. Her time at River was fruitful as she became an important figure in its history, obtaining seven titles in its three different stages.
Remember the case of “Tigre” Gareca, today a very successful soccer coach, who in 1984 went from Boca to River due to contractual problems. El “Flaco” did not win titles in Núñez, as he was quickly transferred to América de Cali.
The Cabezón left Boca and had a significant walk in the First Division, but in 1984, as a result of contractual problems with the club, he looked for a way out and went to River, where he became a symbol, lifting the 1986 Copa Libertadores and the Intercontinental Cup.
Although he did not make his debut in Boca (he did so in Tigre), Pratto played in the Inferiores and even ended up playing two games in First after his steps on loan for “Matador” and Lyn Oslo. In 2018 he came to River in the midst of many unknowns for being the most expensive pass in the club’s history, but he more than fulfilled it: he was key in the achievement of the 2018 Copa Libertadores, precisely against “Xeneize”.
