From the December 2019 elections to this present in which the figure of Juan Román Riquelme grew in decision-making, Boca's political life is in constant motion.

And the one who seems to be getting off the boat is the vice president, Mario Pergolini.

The conductor and producer who accompanied

Jorge Amor Ameal

in the formula sees that his role in the institution was in the background.

Far from having interference in the sporting aspect and behind Ameal in institutional decisions,

Pergolini was left with the field of communication

.

Just a month ago, the club launched the new TV channel through the YouTube platform (Boca TV) to reach members and fans directly.

Who was in charge of the project was Pergolini.

But before long the problems appeared.

Pergolini did not like the refusal of

the Soccer Council

to "lend" the players from the Primera squad to participate in the different programs of the channel and Mario feels that there is plenty of the institutional set-up of the club.

This is why he evaluates his possibilities and could present his resignation, request a license or occupy another role - secondary - within the club.

The truth is that Pergolini would leave the Board of Directors sooner rather than later.

Pergolini was never very convinced to participate so actively in the Boca elections.

Before the December elections, the driver had declared in an interview with the TNT Sports channel that the game had "gone wrong."

"I wanted to accompany, but I didn't want to be the vice,"

Mario had declared.

But in the end, he was Ameal's running mate.

In the political construction of the opposition, at that time, to defeat Christian Gribaudo, Daniel Angelici's candidate, it was necessary to put strong names and it seems Mario lent himself to be able to change to the leadership of the club after 15 years.
