One of the transfers that generated the most media impact in 2019 in Argentina was that of the Italian midfielder
Daniele de Rossi to Boca
.
The footballer had ended his contract with Roma and his friendship with Nicolás Burdisso, then sports director of Xeneize, was decisive for him to join
Gustavo Alfaro
's team .
The tano wanted to live the experience of playing for a great team in Argentina before his retirement, and although he showed his quality with continuity, he was the protagonist of a classic against River and even scored a goal, against Almagro for the Argentine Cup.
Diego Maradona even received him at his house.
De Rossi is now the coach of Roma
(he replaced José Mourinho) and this Thursday he celebrated with great euphoria the passage to the round of 16 of the Europa League, after beating Feyenoord on penalties, at the Olympic stadium.
And when he hugged
Leandro Paredes
, another with a past in Boca, he pointed out the strip...
BY MOUTH?
Pay attention to Daniele De Rossi's reaction and his words for Paredes after qualifying for the round of 16 of the Europa League.
