After the departure of Mauricio Serna and Raúl Cascini from the Football Council of Boca, rumors began to circulate about possible replacements. One of the names that emerged was Cristian Traverso, a former player of the club and now a television panelist. However, he himself categorically stated that he would rule out any approach from Juan Román Riquelme.
"He should save himself a call. I would say no, because it would only bring problems and I don't want Boca to have problems. I wouldn't listen to him," he stated bluntly on TyC Sports.
Traverso, Intercontinental Cup champion in 2000 with Xeneize, explained that his refusal is not related to a personal conflict with Riquelme, the club's current president. He clarified: "I'm not at odds with Román. I don't bother him because he's in a position and I'm on television. However, that doesn't mean I can't criticize him."
