. Yes, I will accompany the opposition candidate. With my vote or whatever they ask me. Hopefully the opposition unites a candidate to give the partner another alternative," he explained to TN and although He also ruled out that Mauricio Macri was going to participate in the next elections in the club, he admitted that he longs for that support.

"I would love it, but Macri is not going to be a candidate. Perhaps he is willing to accompany, perhaps on the list, to give his support. We have to see what he will do with his future as well. He is my friend, he is ours Boca already gave him a lot of joy, so it would be great for him to get involved with the club again," he remarked before shooting Riquelme, who predicted a "95 to 5" victory in the upcoming elections and that they will have it as a candidate.

On top of that, they skip the list of adherent members: they made 18,000 more members, (so) there will continue to be problems", analyzed angelici, who during his Last management sparked the idea of ​​building another stadium after buying the surrounding properties.

In the interview, Angelici also opened an opinion on the progress of the team and the coach Hugo Ibarra.

He hasn't improved much, players have left and he has been lost hierarchy. Against Defense he played well, but against Banfield no. One has already gone through that stage and from the outside he is one more fan: always encouraging, always wanting to see Boca win, "he said.

"I love Negro Ibarra very much. He accompanied me in my first campaign, but the most important thing is to have a coach who has 100 percent autonomy, something that is very difficult with the Football Council and with Riquelme," closed the former president. de Boca in two consecutive periods between 2011 and 2019.
