Chiquito Romero back in Boca squad after long absence | OneFootball

The former goalkeeper of the Argentina National Team hasn't played since November 2024.

Boca Juniors announced a list of 32 footballers to travel to Mar del Plata, where they will seek their third consecutive victory in the Clausura Tournament against Aldosivi for the seventh matchday.

With the intention of reinforcing the unity of the squad, coach Miguel Ángel Russo included in the delegation players who have been sidelined, such as goalkeeper Sergio “Chiquito” Romero.

Romero, 38 years old, is not considered by the coach and awaits the end of his contract on December 31, but will still accompany the team. His last match in Boca's goal was in November 2024.

In addition to Romero, three other goalkeepers will travel: Agustín Marchesín (starter), Javier García and Leandro Brey.

The defender Marco Pellegrino, currently injured, is also on the list although his place on the field will be taken by Ayrton Costa.
