The dream that Mauricio Macri had in Boca was fulfilled by River
.
On Saturday, in the friendly against Universidad de Chile in Salta, Ñúñez's team ended up playing with 9 (of the 11) soccer players from the club's lower divisions.
It is not a coincidence or an isolated event.
It is a comprehensive project that began with Marcelo Gallardo and will seek to deepen with Martín Demichelis.
In fact, Micho
's day-to-day
work is not exclusive to the Primera.
As Clarín
learned
, the coach permanently observes the Reserve youth.
And not only the games, but also the training sessions.
He holds daily talks with the coaching staff commanded by
Marcelo Escudero
.
He does the same with those of the Selective who make up players from the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Division, directed by Jorge Sbrissa.
Then, the inclusion of the youth players in the First Division can begin to be recurrent.
Demichelis brought nine players to Salta and
six of them had the chance to make their debut in the First Division
.
The most resonant, by name, was Matías Gallardo
, the son of the
Doll
, who coincidentally celebrated 30 years of his debut in River's first team on Sunday, in a match against Olimpia for the Copa Libertadores.
Demichelis will take into account several kids to keep up with this busy year.

Now it was the turn of his second son, who was born in 2003, the year his father returned to play for River after passing through Monaco and in which Demichelis, the coach who made him debut, left for Bayern Munich. .
Matías was born on November 23 of that year.
He is an attacking midfielder.
In Reserve he has been playing for a while, he has 41 games in total, where he scored a goal and assisted six times.
On Saturday he played on the right, with a changed leg.
Another of the boys who promises is Esteban Fernández.
He plays catch, and he's from Loma Hermosa.
He was born on January 6, 2002, and is right-handed.
He recently signed his first contract as a professional, and has played 88 Reserve games, with a balance of six goals and one assist.
Daniel Zabala is a defender who had a good performance at Padre Martearena
.
Just 8 Reserve games were enough to impress Demichelis.
It is a bet in the background that excites in River.
He measures 180 centimeters, is right-handed and has been with the club since 2016.
Gonzalo Trindade
is another who has few Reserve games, since he played 6 games in total, totaling 462 minutes.
He made his debut in that category on October 4 of last year, and arrived at the club in 2011. He plays on the left side, and has not yet signed a contract.
He was born on May 14, 2004, in Olivos, Vicente López.
Joaquín Flores, meanwhile, is a striker.
He came from Tucumán and is in the 2005 category. He is left-handed and has two goals in the Reserve, in just 9 games played.
The future has already arrived in River.
And Demichelis wants to exploit the potential of these juniors who will try to give the best results in the First Division and thus dream that in a not too distant time there will be a team made in Núñez.
