Concern within Boca has been growing as the days go by. Miguel Ángel Russo has not been able to lead training sessions or accompany the team in matches for several weeks, and his health condition keeps the club on edge. In the recent matches against Newell’s and Defensa y Justicia, Claudio Úbeda was in charge of the squad.
According to journalist Leandro "Tato" Aguilera on TyC Sports, Russo is going through "a difficult and delicate situation," and remains under home hospitalization with constant medical supervision. "Boca's coach is weak, he is in serious condition, everyone here is sending him their strength and support so he can recover!," the same source added.
The coach has not managed the team since September 24 and, after several routine check-ups, doctors recommended that he continue treatment from home. Even so, he closely followed last weekend's match, in which Boca defeated Newell’s 5-0 at La Bombonera.
